SUMMARY:Tết Nguyên Đán Đinh Mùi — Lunar New Year
LOCATION:City-wide — the centre of gravity is Nguyễn Huệ\, Chợ Lớn and the pagodas
DESCRIPTION:Giao thừa (New Year's Eve) Friday 5 February 2027\; Mùng 1 on Saturday 6 February\; public holiday Thursday 4 – Wednesday 10 February 2027\n\nCity-wide — the centre of gravity is Nguyễn Huệ\, Chợ Lớn and the pagodas\n\nThe reason you plan around February at all: the city half-closes for a week and the days either side run on a completely different rhythm.\n\nFree to observe\; expect transport and accommodation to be at their most expensive.\n\nNot confirmed: Nothing about the 2027 flower street\, the 2027 fireworks sites or a specific Nguyễn Huệ window is announced. Do not print the 2026 hours and call them 2027.\n\nSources: https://cafef.vn/lich-nghi-tet-nguyen-dan-dinh-mui-nghi-le-quoc-khanh-2027-188261101165027813.chn | https://vietnamnet.vn/can-bo-cong-chuc-duoc-nghi-tet-nguyen-dan-2027-lien-tuc-7-ngay-2563406.html
