Carrying the message “Children Today—The World Tomorrow,” the festival is more than just a day of fun. It is a vibrant celebration where children and their families come together to create unforgettable memories.
The third Ho Chi Minh City Children’s Festival 2025 also marks the 50th anniversary of the Ho Chi Minh City Children's House (June 1, 1975–2025).
Through a diverse range of activities, the event reaffirms the vital role and position of the Children's House and its network across the city in providing non-formal education for children. The Children's House has long served as a nurturing space for learning, talent development in arts, culture, and sports, as well as hubs for recreation, cultural exchange, creative exploration, and life skills training. It remains a beloved home of childhood for generations of young citizens in Ho Chi Minh City.
