The festival is expected to become a joyful and enriching playground for exchanges among children from the Southeast Asian countries, thereby introducing the historical traditions and cultural values of each country to the children of Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia.
This meaningful event is organized to celebrate the 62nd anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between Vietnam and Laos (September 5, 1962 - 2024) and the 57th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and Cambodia (June 24, 1967 - 2024).
