In addition to the eight locations announced earlier for fireworks displays, HCM City will add another three locations for the 2024 Lunar New Year (Tết) celebration.

According to Trần Thế Thuận, Director of the HCM City Department of Culture and Sports, the city will add more locations to serve suburban residents in Bình Chánh, Củ Chi and Cần Giờ.

On February 1, during a meeting discussing economic results for January and key tasks for February 2024, Thuận mentioned the previous plan involved two high-altitude and six low-altitude fireworks locations.

The high-altitude locations will be arranged at the entrance of the Sài Gòn River Tunnel in Thủ Đức City and the Bến Dược Commemorative Temple in Củ Chi District.

With three new locations, a total of nine low-altitude fireworks locations will be held at Đầm Sen Cultural Park in District 11, Láng Le Bàu Cò Historical Site in Bình Chánh District, Rừng Sác Square in Cần Giờ District, Ngã Ba Giồng Historical Site in Hóc Môn District, District 7 Administrative Centre Square, Bình Trị Đông Residential Area in Bình Tân District, Cultural Park Area in Củ Chi District, Bến Nọc Temple in Thủ Đức City and Cultural Park in Gò Vấp District.

However, due to the dense population at Láng Le Bàu Cò Historical Site, the Department of Culture and Sports suggested that the City People's Committee relocate the fireworks display to the traditional revolutionary area of Mậu Thân in Bình Chánh District to ensure safety.

Additionally, Thuận mentioned that previously, the approval authority for fireworks displays rested with the Prime Minister.

According to new regulations, districts now coordinate with the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism to organise low-altitude fireworks displays.

The low-altitude fireworks locations are actively managed by districts in terms of funding and do not use the city's budget.
