The highlight of the programme was the Mid-Autumn lantern model contest and parade at the Duong Lam Ancient Village’s Gate, with the participation of nine village units.
The Mid-Autumn lantern models were designed to resemble historical figures, folk legends, beloved animals from fairy tales and fables, as well as images that are considered cultural symbols or special products representing each participating unit.

The programme's activities also carry significant meaning in preserving and promoting traditional cultural values, reviving the rich and unique cultural identity of the “Doai” region. Additionally, they create a cultural space and tourist attraction for Duong Lam Ancient Village, aiming to draw both domestic and international tourists.
The programme also contributes to raising awareness and responsibility among families, schools, communities, and society as a whole in protecting, caring for, and educating children, while also bringing them a meaningful and joyful Mid-Autumn Festival.
