Held from March 20 to April 8, the Francophonie Festival saw the participation of 15 embassies and diplomatic missions from Francophone countries in Chile.

Celebrating the French language and the diverse cultural values of the Francophone community, the annual festival included a wide range of activities such as film screenings, art exhibitions, panel discussions, a food fair, and educational programs, all designed to promote multilateral dialogue, mutual understanding, and cultural exchange.

In addition to presenting Vietnamese cinema, the Vietnamese Embassy also took part in the festival’s culinary segment. Dishes were prepared and served by embassy staff and their spouses, introducing visitors to the rich and flavorful Vietnamese cuisine.

Through such activities, the embassy reaffirmed its role as an active and prominent contributor to this year’s Francophonie Festival, receiving warm support from the local public and international participants.

Vietnam’s consistent and meaningful participation in the festival over the years reflects its proactive approach to international integration, promotion of cultural exchange, and commitment to fostering friendship with Francophone countries, including host nation Chile, which currently holds the observer status in the International Organization of La Francophonie.
