Xin Chào Việt Nam (Hello Vietnam): Ticket to Childhood
Xin Chào Việt Nam 2026: Ticket to Childhood invites you on a heartfelt journey back to the wonder of growing up in Vietnam. Inspired by the beloved book Cho tôi một vé đi tuổi thơ (Give Me a Ticket to Childhood), the event celebrates imagination, joy, and the cultural values that connect us across generations and borders.
Over four hours, participants will experience Vietnam through storytelling, movement, and play:
1. Cultural Presentation (30–45 minutes): Discover the sights, sounds, and traditions that shape the everyday lives of Vietnamese children, from schoolyard games to family values, through an engaging multimedia showcase.
2. Dance Performance (45 minutes): Enjoy an original student-choreographed performance set to traditional Vietnamese music, blending grace and energy in a celebration of community and identity.
3. Cultural Immersion Activities (90 minutes): Join the lively Vietnamese bamboo dance and take part in hands-on workshops featuring traditional childhood games. Participants will receive a “VISA passport” filled with fun, interactive challenges. Complete them all to earn a special prize!
Whether you grew up in Vietnam or are discovering it for the first time, this event offers a welcoming space to connect, laugh, and relive the universal magic of childhood. Come ready to move, learn, and make new memories, with a “ticket” back to the wonder years.
