Halloween is the most anticipated holiday at the end of October.

Although not a part of traditional culture, Halloween is accepted in Vietnam mainly through cultural influences from the West and globalization, as well as the curiosity and desire for experiences of young people.
Halloween has its origins in the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, where they celebrated the end of the harvest season and the beginning of a new year. Vietnam accepts Halloween through the process of integration and cultural exchange. This day does not have a deep spiritual meaning but is welcomed as an occasion for people, especially young people, to gather and express creativity through costumes and entertainment activities.
