The festival took place in an exciting atmosphere to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2025) and the 139th anniversary of International Labor Day (May 1, 1886 - May 1, 2025).
In her opening speech, Ms. Do Thi Dieu Hanh - Director of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Binh Dinh province - said that in addition to effectively exploiting the natural, historical and cultural potential of "the land of fighting, the land of literature", Binh Dinh is making efforts to diversify tourism products, focusing on promoting the strengths of local cuisine.
According to Ms. Hanh, cuisine is an indispensable part of the tourism development journey. Each dish not only has a unique flavor but also contains stories about the culture, history and people of Binh Dinh. Specialties such as Bau Da wine, Huyen market spring rolls, banh da gai leaf, clay shrimp spring rolls, Quy Nhon fish vermicelli, banh xeo and ruc ro... are the "cultural ambassadors" contributing to spreading the image of Binh Dinh to tourists from near and far.
Following the success of 2024, the Binh Dinh Food Culture Festival 2025 will be held on a larger scale, gathering 55 food stalls from international markets (Thailand, Korea, Japan...) and many domestic regions such as Gia Lai, Nghe An, Soc Trang, Da Nang, Dak Lak, Ben Tre, Ho Chi Minh City, Thanh Hoa, ...
In particular, the festival also has 19 booths introducing Binh Dinh culinary culture; 16 OCOP booths of 67 units in 11 districts, towns and cities in the province; 4 booths displaying and promoting tourism...
The highlight of this year's festival is the space for culinary exhibition - "stage" of domestic and international talented artisans and chefs performing culinary techniques, combining cultural storytelling through each flavor.
The 2025 Binh Dinh Food Culture Festival is a place where culinary quintessence intertwines, an opportunity to strongly promote the image of Binh Dinh - a friendly, unique land that is constantly developing.
