Tet, the Lunar New Year, marks the beginning of spring and is the most observed holiday within the Vietnamese community. As a means to preserve culture, the Vietnamese American community celebrates Tet through a vibrant array of traditional foods, ceremonies, and customs.
The Union of Vietnamese Student Associations (UVSA) is proud to host the 26th Annual Tet Festival of Southern California. UVSA staff and members contribute thousands of hours organizing the festival as a means to strengthen cultural awareness among the youth, build future leaders for the community, and fund community programs and projects across the Southern California region. Attracting over 100,000 patrons annually, the Tet Festival of Southern Californa remains the largest cultural event in Little Saigon and stands as the largest Tet Festival in the entire country.
This year as we celebrate the Year of the Rat, people from all over Southern California and across the country are expected to attend the festival. We cordially invite you to join us in the festivities as we prepare for the best Tet Festival yet!
