The Tet holiday of the Year of the Rabbit 2025 is approaching, bringing excitement and joy to every corner of the country. One of the highlights this year is the nationwide fireworks displays, offering unforgettable moments for people as they welcome the new year.
Hanoi: Spectacular Fireworks at 30 Locations on New Year’s Eve
Hanoi, the thousand-year-old capital, will be the center of attention with 30 fireworks locations (including 31 launch sites) at the stroke of midnight. These sites are distributed across all 30 districts, counties, and towns, ensuring that residents from all areas can enjoy the spectacular light show.
Specifically, there will be 9 high-altitude combined low-altitude sites (corresponding to 10 launch sites), along with 21 low-altitude sites. The fireworks display will last from 00:00 to 00:15 on January 29 (New Year’s Day). With temperatures ranging from 12-20°C and no rain expected, the weather on the night of the 29th day of the lunar month is ideal for outdoor activities, especially gathering around Hoan Kiem Lake to witness the New Year’s moment.
