The closing art program of the Festival had the participation of many artists from Vietnam and Japan. Sponsored by the Consulate General of Vietnam in Osaka and the Higashi Osaka City Government.

The most memorable moment at the event was the moment when singer Tung Duong sang the National Anthem in front of thousands of Vietnamese audiences, in a space filled with the red flag with yellow star. As soon as the melody sounded, everyone stood up, put their hands on their left chests, and turned towards the stage - where the majestic voice sounded like the common beat of patriotic hearts in a foreign land.

Tung Duong emotionally shared: “Singing the national anthem in Japan is an indescribable feeling. I am happy to sing along with my compatriots far from home in such a sacred moment.” After that, the male singer continued to lead the emotions with songs rich in symbolism: The Road We Go , Rebirth , A Round of Vietnam , Aspiration of Youth … The audience not only listened but also sang along, cried, and raised the national flag together, creating a beautiful image called Vietnam in the heart of Osaka.

This festival is not only a cultural event, but also an emotional declaration of Vietnamese people living far from home. Mr. Tran Nhat Hoang - Deputy Director of the Department of International Cooperation (Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism), said: "The festival is a bridge connecting the community, where every Vietnamese citizen becomes a cultural ambassador". Head of the organizing committee Do Hai Khoi emphasized: "No matter where they are, the Vietnamese heart always turns to its roots. This is an opportunity to revive pride and introduce to international friends an aspirational Vietnam".
