According to reporters of Lao Dong Newspaper in the early days of February 2026, the mascot cluster recreates the image of a herd of horses galloping, spreading strongly in the spring festival space.
The mascot cluster not only carries decorative meaning but also sends a message about the aspiration to break through, the spirit of striving and the belief in a new year of prosperity and wealth.
Overall, the work impresses with its dynamic and rhythmic composition. The horses are arranged in a continuous moving formation, as if rushing forward in a brave posture.
It can be seen that each posture, flight, and tilt of the head and body are carefully calculated, creating a feeling of continuous and vivid movement.
Not only that, the backdrop with the classic architecture of the Phu Tho Provincial Art and Culture House, combined with effects from lights, further clarifies the strong shape of the herd of horses, making the work both harmonious with the landscape and outstanding.
In terms of shaping, the 2026 horse mascot shows the elaborate investment and skillful, artistic hands of the production team. The horse muscles are clearly and firmly depicted, showing strength and endurance.
One detail is that the beard and swinging tail are handled softly but no less decisively, contributing to emphasizing the feeling of speed and energy.
The dominant reddish-brown color is warm, evoking a hint of prosperity and wealth, while creating a feeling of closeness and friendliness for viewers.
Not only stopping at aesthetic elements, the mascot cluster also contains profound cultural meaning. In Asian beliefs, horses are symbols of endurance and success, "success upon arrival" has long become a familiar wish every early spring.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Ngan - a resident of Xuan Lung commune, Phu Tho province - shared: "Every time Tet approaches, my whole family goes to the flower market, both to buy flowers for Tet and to take photos with mascots. Every year I see mascots here with beautiful and eye-catching designs, proving that the organizers are very meticulous and dedicated.
The selection of the image of a herd of galloping horses in 2026 is therefore meant to wish for a new year full of prosperity, socio-economic development, and people full of energy to conquer new goals.
The 2026 horse mascot cluster at the flower market not only beautifies the urban space during the Lunar New Year, but also spreads a positive message about will, aspiration and belief in a new year of many successes, in line with the bustling and joyful spirit of the spring of the ancestral land.
