The Vietnamese Tet Fair, which encompassed nearly 20 stalls of various items, foods, goods, etc. for the New Year, brought forth a colorful and nostalgic scene evocative of traditional values. Every item and decoration at the fair spoke of UEF students’ great craftmanship. Especially, the “Tao Beauty Contest 2020” was reinvented into a new show called “The Face Tao” which created a thrilling contest for students from all faculties.

The stalls were beautifully and uniquely designed according to the students’ faculties.
