HCM City to host first street art festival in Vietnam

The event, the first of its kind in Vietnam, is scheduled to get underway between April and November next year. It will feature a diverse range of activities for members of the public to enjoy and participate in, including mural paintings, street art exhibitions, workshops focusing on street art, and music festivals.

It is hoped that through the event images of the citizens and landscapes of both Vietnam and the southern city will be promoted, according to Duong Anh Duc, vice chairman of Ho Chi Minh City’s administration.

He also assigned the local departments of foreign affairs, culture and sports, and the youth cultural house, to be in charge of organising the event.
