The event promoted Vietnam’s people, culture, and cuisine to local people and international students in New Zealand.

“Vietnam Day” is held annually in Wellington by the VSAW, with support from the Embassy of Vietnam, the Vietnamese community in Wellington, and the managing board of the night market festival under the Wellington City Council. This year’s event was held outdoors for the first time.
