According to a plan issued by the Hanoi People’s Committee, the programme is scheduled to begin at 8.10 pm on January 23, with fireworks launched from the My Dinh National Stadium area.
The Hanoi Capital Command has been tasked with coordinating inspections to ensure that the fireworks meet required technical standards.
City police will draw up security and traffic plans, including crowd control and diversions, while the Department of Culture and Sports will oversee the installation of large LED screens at the stadium square.
Authorities will also install temporary public toilets in and around the fireworks area to serve large crowds and maintain urban order.
The 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam is scheduled to take place in Hanoi from January 19 to 25.
Separately, Hanoi said that during the Lunar New Year 2026 or Tet, the city will organise fireworks at 31 locations with 32 launch sites, including 11 sites combining high- and low-altitude fireworks and 21 low-altitude sites.
Lunar New Year fireworks are set to begin at midnight on the New Year’s Eve which falls on February 17.
