A Vietnamese cultural festival was held at Warwick University in the UK on March 13 by the Vietnamese Students’ Association.

More than 300 Vietnamese students attended the event together with their international friends.

Musical programmes were performed at the gala to introduce Vietnam’s folksongs and cultural values.

The event aimed to strengthen solidarity among Vietnamese students in the UK and encourage them to uphold the cultural traditions of their home country. It was also a good opportunity to introduce Vietnam’s traditional values to international friends.

Warwick University is among the leading universities in the UK that hosts students from more than 100 countries, including 70 students from Vietnam.
