The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has decided to hold the Vietnamese Family Festival 2011 to celebrate the National Family Day at the Vietnam Culture and Fine Arts Exhibition Centre in Hanoi from June 25th to 28th.

The festival is an important event to honour the traditional cultural value of Vietnamese families as well as a good opportunity for them to meet and exchange their experiences in building up “Cultural Family” towards family’s sustainable development in the industrialisation, modernisation and international integration process in Vietnam.

Previously, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung signed Degree No. 72/2001/QĐ-TTg on May 4th, 2001, in which June 28th was chosen as the “Vietnamese Family Festival” to highlight responsibilities of leaders at all level to families to make contributions to the national construction and defence course.
