The programme, with part of it in conjunction with the Reunification Day (April 30) and May Day holidays, features art performances, sport activities, folk games, culinary delights, and hand-on experiences. This year, there will be mass performances of Mong panpipe and umbrella dances by artisans and more than 100 pupils in the district.

Visitors will have a chance to join rice planting activities, drawing patterns with beeswax on fabrics, embroidering brocades, weaving Mong fabrics with flax yarn, making the Mong panpipe, and exploring the cultural values of the Mong and Thai ethnic communities in community-based tourism villages. They can also tour the local terraced fields, a bamboo forest in Pung Luong commune, an ancient stone area in Lao Chai commune, and a primeval forest in Che Tao commune, among many other breathtaking destinations.

Also part of the enticing event are a photo exhibition on the beauty of the season, a mountainous wet market introducing local farming specialties, and a paragliding festival, slated to begin on April 30.
