Vietnamese Women's Day

Vietnamese Women's Day, celebrated on October 20th each year, is a significant date in Vietnam dedicated to honoring the contributions of women to society and family. This day is akin to International Women’s Day, but specifically tailored for Vietnamese cultural context.

History

The origins of Vietnamese Women's Day are tied to historical efforts for gender equality and the empowerment of women in Vietnam. The date was formally established during the era of North Vietnam as a counterpart to International Women’s Day, which is celebrated globally on March 8th. It reflects Vietnam's long-standing appreciation of women and their roles in the country's development and defense.

Traditions

On this day, various activities are organized across the nation:

  • Celebratory Gatherings: Workplaces, schools, and communities hold events that may include speeches, performances, and discussions about women's rights and achievements.

  • Gift-Giving: It is customary for men to express their gratitude toward women in their lives—mothers, wives, sisters, colleagues—by giving them flowers and gifts.

  • Sales Promotions: Retailers often offer special discounts and promotions aimed at female customers.

  • Public Recognition: Achievements by notable women in various fields are highlighted in media campaigns.

Activities

People celebrate the day by:

  • Sharing meals with important women in their lives.
  • Hosting parties or going out to celebrate.
  • Posting celebratory messages on social media or sending cards to honor the women they admire.

Vietnamese Women's Day has become both a personal celebration of individual relationships with women and a broader cultural observance recognizing the societal contributions of women throughout Vietnam’s history.
