The Song Mun Festival, held in Quang Duc commune, Quang Ninh province, vividly reflects the cultural identity of the Dao Thanh Y community. The event plays a meaningful role in preserving traditions while promoting community-based tourism.

On March 21, at Khay Phau village, Quang Duc commune, the 2026 Song Mun Festival officially opened, drawing large numbers of local residents and visitors. It is one of the most representative festivals of the Dao Thanh Y people, carrying wishes for peace, good fortune and abundant harvests.

The ceremonial part of the festival was conducted solemnly, featuring the “Song Mun” offering ritual at the village shrine, praying for favorable weather and prosperity. The traditional cap sac initiation ritual, a distinctive cultural feature of the Dao people, was reenacted, creating a sacred atmosphere. Visitors and locals were also given fragrant sachets as symbolic wishes for peace and luck.

The festive section unfolded in a lively and engaging manner, with activities such as traditional hair arrangement competitions, embroidery contests, leaf horn performances, tug-of-war and stick pushing. Cultural exchanges including duet singing, traditional costume showcases and ethnic feast competitions further highlighted the rich spiritual and cultural life of the Dao Thanh Y community.

Beyond its role as a cultural celebration, the festival serves as a platform to strengthen community bonds while preserving and promoting traditional values. At the same time, it offers Quang Duc an opportunity to showcase its identity, attract visitors and foster the development of cultural tourism.

The Song Mun Festival takes place over two days, from March 21 to 22, 2026.
