The awards program recognises and honours outstanding contributions by press organisations and journalists to the development of Vietnamese culture, while promoting notable achievements in culture, information, family, sports and tourism.

Nguyen Anh Vu, Editor-in-Chief of Van Hoa (Culture) newspaper and Deputy Head of the Organising Committee, said: "There will be a special prize for the best work selected from the five categories. We will reduce the number of prizes, which means higher the value of the awards. The Organizing Committee also introduces clear regulations regarding reporting practices and the use of artificial intelligence."

The awards ceremony is scheduled to take place in Hanoi on Vietnamese Culture Day, November 24, 2026.
