The Vietnamese government has officially announced the detailed schedule for the six Tet holidays in 2027, providing citizens with an opportunity for extended breaks. The holidays are strategically set to coincide with weekends, allowing for a smoother transition into the festive season.

As part of the plan, the capital city of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City will resume work after five days of holiday, which is expected to result in heavy traffic as people return to their daily routines. The announcement highlights the government's effort to improve holiday experiences by proposing an additional paid day off, which is currently under consideration for inclusion in the Labor Code.

During the Tet celebrations, various activities and events are organized to honor Vietnamese traditions and culture. The Tet holiday, also known as the Lunar New Year, is a significant time for families to gather, reflect, and celebrate the new year with various customs and practices.
