Meanwhile, “Meet The Poet” will allow poets from both countries to share and exchange selected works, offering moments of immersion in language and emotion.

A fashion show will showcase the latest collections that beautifully blend traditional elements with modern designs. Designers will creatively reinterpret traditional attire, promoting Vietnamese and Italian fashion culture with a contemporary flair.

The “Trade Development” workshop will feature economic experts discussing market development strategies. Businesses will have the opportunity to learn and exchange ideas on collaboration, enhancing their competitiveness and fostering international trade between Vietnam, Italy, and Europe.

Another activity is the “Cooking School” where renowned chefs will present the culinary arts of Vietnam and Italy through signature dishes. Participants in the cooking classes can explore unique cooking techniques and the rich cultural narratives reflected in each dish.

Furthermore, “Meet The Music” will introduce talented artists from both Vietnam and Italy, showcasing a blend of traditional and modern music. In the “Meet The Tourism” corner, travel agencies from both countries will display captivating images and information about special destinations in Vietnam and Italy, opening up new travel exploration opportunities.
