The festival, themed "Children Today - The World Tomorrow," aims to support the Month of Action for Children. It encompasses cultural exchanges, recreational activities, entertainment, and providing both material and spiritual care for children.

According to Mr. Ha Tai Sau, Deputy Director of the HCMC Children's House, this marks the first time that HCMC is organizing a festival of such scale for children, featuring numerous exceptional recreational activities.

The program will offer seven experiential spaces for children, including digital technology - "I Love Science," a music show with vibrant childhood colors, sports training, family fun, shared reading, children's booths, and culinary culture.
