The 15th annual San Diego Tet Festival is one of the largest free community festivals in San Diego, celebrating the Lunar New Year.
It is held at Mira Mesa Community Park and is a large 3-day celebration that celebrates the beginning of Spring and a fresh start to the New Year.
San Diego Tet Festival 2020 will be celebrating the Year of the Rat. Attracting more than 25,000 people every year from all over the city, the 3-day celebration features free admission, a number of new attractions, activities, games, food and live entertainment, including, but not limited to, A-list Vietnamese singers and performers, lion dancing, firecrackers and some of our most popular programs, the Miss Vietnam of San Diego pageant, Step-Up Dance and Golden Voice competitions.
What is T???t?
T???t Nguy??n ????n, commonly known as T???t, is the most important holiday in Vietnam. It is the Vietnamese New Year which is based on the lunisolar calendar.
T???t is celebrated from the first day of the first month of the lunisolar calendar (around late January or early February) until at least the third day. Many Vietnamese prepare for T???t by cooking special holiday foods and cleaning the house. On T???t, Vietnamese visit their families and temples, forget about the troubles of the past year and hope for a better upcoming year. T???t traditionally marks the coming of Spring, so Spring is sometimes used interchangeably with T???t in Vietnamese.
