TET Festival
Vietnamese New Year

The Vietnamese New Year “TET” Festival presented by the Vietnamese American community of Greater Dallas will be celebrated this year at Traders Village. It's the Year Of The Monkey!
This special event will showcase a wide range of professional and community performing artists, business and corporate displays, traditional and non-traditional activities, talent competitions, food fair, art dealers and much more.
Just imagine if Christmas, New Year’s Day, Thanksgiving and your birthday were all rolled into one glorious holiday that lasted for two fun-filled days. Decked out in new clothes bought specially for the occasion, you’d spend the time leisurely collecting “good luck” money, visiting friends and family, setting off a few firecrackers and eating lots of yummy food. And best of all, nobody could get mad. The belief is that the way you act and the things you do during those crucial first days of the new lunar period will set the tone for the rest of the year. So, it is no wonder celebrants avoid arguments, put on smiling faces and give generous gifts of ripe fruits, delicate rice cakes and red envelopes stuffed with cash.
This is what TET (new year) celebrations are like for Vietnamese around the world. Observed for more than 4,000 years, it’s a time to give thanks, ask for blessings to come, to put the past behind and to get ready to start anew.
