The event, jointly organised by the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology, the Yunnan Nationalities Museum, and the Yunnan Institute of Chinese Opera, will include performances and activities for children, offering them a chance to discover the similarities and differences between the cultures of Vietnam and China.

A lion dance, water puppets, and Vietnamese opera performances will represent traditional Vietnamese culture while the charm of Chinese culture will be shown in Chinese opera, and the arts of cutting paper, painting Chinese opera masks, sewing toy animals, and making lanterns. 

Museum visitors will have an opportunity to participate in common folk games from the two countries such as top spinning, tug of war, blind tag, round dancing on one foot, robbing treasure, and team races.

On the first day of the festival, 100 gifts will be donated to disadvantaged children in charity villages and vocational training centres.
