About Vietnam Reunification Day (30/4)
Reunification Day — Ngày Giải phóng miền Nam, 30/4 — marks April 30, 1975, the end of the war and the reunification of Vietnam. Together with International Labor Day on May 1, it forms one of Vietnam's major holiday breaks, and the countdown above tracks the days until the next one.
The 30/4 – 1/5 holiday is one of the busiest travel windows of the Vietnamese year: beaches from Vũng Tàu to Đà Nẵng fill up, cities hold fireworks and parades, and Ho Chi Minh City — where the holiday's history centers — celebrates at scale, especially on round-number anniversaries.
