A Milestone Celebration

In 2025, CanCham Vietnam proudly celebrates its 25th Anniversary – a milestone built on the dedication of our members, partners, and community. To mark this occasion, we are hosting a Thanksgiving Celebration that combines the warmth of Canadian tradition with the vibrancy of our Vietnamese home.

Canadian Thanksgiving is celebrated earlier than the U.S. holiday, in October, to coincide with the harvest season. This tradition of giving thanks feels especially meaningful as we reflect on 25 years of growth, partnership, and impact in Vietnam.

This evening of gratitude will bring together CanCham members past and present, their families, friends, and the wider business community, celebrating not only our shared journey but also the impact, sustainability, and community spirit that define CanCham Vietnam.

Target Audience:

• CanCham Members (Corporate, SMEs, Individuals)
• Government Partners & Diplomatic Community
• Alumni Members & Long-time Supporters
• Friends, Families & Wider Community
