High altitude fireworks are fired from the Flag Tower on a New Year’s Eve to welcome the Lunar New Year

This is one of the activities outlined in the plan to celebrate the Party and welcome the Lunar New Year of Dragon, as announced by the Provincial People’s Committee on January 18.

Accordingly, there will be 1.000 fireworks fired in Hue City, while Quang Dien and Phu Vang districts will have 500 fireworks each. The entire budget for the firework display is from social contributions.
