My Khanh Tourist Village – A Signature Ecotourism Destination in Can Tho
More than just a showcase of regional delicacies, this year’s festival also plays an important role in preserving and promoting local specialties and traditional craft villages of Southern Vietnam. It serves as a cultural bridge, introducing the unique heritage of the Mekong Delta to domestic and international visitors, while allowing them to discover authentic local flavors and gain a deeper understanding of the people’s way of life.
Scheduled to take place from April 30 to May 4, 2025, at My Khanh Tourist Village, the festival coincides with the 50th Anniversary of Vietnam’s Reunification, adding special significance to the event. Under the theme “Mekong Delta Specialties – A Journey of Preservation and Sharing”, the festival promises a colorful atmosphere filled with the charm of rivers and life on the water.
A Vibrant Festival of River Life
The festival will feature over 50 booths from various Mekong Delta provinces, including OCOP products, traditional Southern cakes, tropical fruits, and the famous My Khanh Countryside Market. Visitors will be treated to hundreds of regional dishes — from well-loved classics like Bánh xèo (crispy pancake), lẩu mắm (fermented fish hotpot), and grilled snakehead fish, to rare and unique delicacies — painting a vivid picture of the region’s diverse culinary heritage.
