The main theme of the event is “Holding hands together. Towards the future, reaching out to the world.”

The festival organisers want to convey a message that people should look forward to a peaceful world where people can understand, respect and live together.

Organised based on the concepts of "bilateral cooperation", "co-existence and development", "building for the future" between Japan and Vietnam, the festival aims to act as a bridge facilitating mutual understanding of culture and tradition between the two countries through holding cultural and sports exchanges.
