Tet 2025 is the celebration of Lunar New Year in Vietnam, which will usher in the Year of the Snake on Saturday, January 29.
On Tet Eve (January 28th), people begin their seven-day celebrations, which will end on February 3rd. This extended week-long holiday allows both locals and tourists to dive deep into the culture. Vietnam streets go from drab to fab - a touch of gold here, a splash of red there — before you know it you’re surrounded by good vibes! And let's not forget about flowers blooming everywhere you go; this festive spirit is contagious!
