About Ghost Festival (Vietnam)
Ghost Festival is an observance (marked, but not a day off) in Vietnam.
In 2027 it falls on a Monday; in 2028 it’s on Sunday 3 September, and in 2029 on Friday 24 August. Because it’s a Monday this time, wherever it’s a day off it makes a long weekend of at least three days. Also in August 2027: National Rum Day (16 Aug), Scimitar-Horned Oryx Day (16 Aug) and National Airborne Day (16 Aug). From this page you can add it to your calendar, get an email before it, share the countdown, or show it full screen.
