The National Television Festival (Vietnamese: Liên hoan truyền hình toàn quốc) is an annual Vietnamese festival where people in the country's television industry meet and share experiences, also review the works of each others during a year and be honoured for their achievements. It is the biggest television event in Vietnam.[2]

The festival is chaired by Vietnam Television Station, each year in collaboration with a local television station that hosts.[3]

History

[edit]

1980s

[edit]

The first time the Vietnam International Federation was held, starting from the initiative of Hue Television Station and Ho Chi Minh City Television Station. They asked the leaders of Vietnam Television to organize a festival for television workers.

At the end of 1981, former Vice Chairman of Vietnam Television and Broadcasting Committee, cum Editor-in-Chief of the Central Television Station - Mr. Le Quy - launched the policy of organizing a national television festival with the desire to bring television people throughout the country an opportunity to meet, exchange and improve their professional skills. The TV festival is held before Tet because this is not only a place for production units to celebrate, but also to exchange programs between stations to broadcast during Tet.

The first nationwide television festival took place in 5 days in a simple meeting room of 30m2, consisting of 8 delegations. There were 48 entries in the contest, with categories of news, film, reportage, documentary, music, and theater. The number of monitors of Hue Television Station was too small, the jury had to divide and watch all night.[4]

1990s

[edit]

In the early 90s, the national television festivals were presided over by the Ministry of Culture and Information of Vietnam at that time. The ministry organizes 2 festivals in a year, in which in the summer there are only reportage works and documentaries with 1 judging panel. Journalist Dinh Thanh said that, later, when considering the factors of organizing the International Federation, Vietnam Television decided to organize only one festival each year in January or December, depending on the Lunar New Year calendar, in order to discuss about the program to serve the Tet holiday.

During this time, the number of participants is large. Genres are also different from the present, including Children's Program, Short Reportage, Long Reportage, Documentary Film, Academic Program, Music Program, TV Film, Theater. These categories are maintained for many years. Then there are more Exchanges, dialogues, talks.

Reportage genre every year has the largest number of participating works because all production units can participate. The strength of course belongs to the big TV stations, but many small stations also won gold, because that's where new topics are discovered at the grassroots, going to every corner of the locality.[5]

Current

[edit]

Since 2000, the national television festival has continuously innovated and improved in terms of organization as well as the quality of participating works. Every year, at conferences, broadcasters from all over the country come together to discuss new techniques in the television industry. The 40th Festival was scheduled to be held in December 2020 in Ninh Bình, but most of the activities had to be cancelled due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Only the judging program is held with a limited number of people at the headquarters of Vietnam Television in Hanoi.[6][7]
