The event was organized by a charity group Friends for Vietnamese Kids.

Visitors to the event can have the opportunity to enjoy the Tet (Lunar New Year) atmosphere – the biggest festival of Vietnamese people in a year.

Head of the charity group Nguyen Chung Thuy said that many people in Belgium want to attend the traditional Tet festival. However, the celebration is usually held at the beginning of the year when cold weather prevents people from attending.

The group held a similar festival in July when many people find it easier to join.

Thuy, her husband, and their Belgian friends founded the group in 2014 and organized fundraising activities for poor children in Bac Giang province every two years.
