Keppel’s involvement in Home Hanoi Xuan 2026 reflects a shared vision with Mailand Hanoi City, the festival’s host and a United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Creative City, which places culture, creativity and innovation at the heart of urban development. This aligns closely with Keppel’s commitment to delivering sustainable and customer-centric solutions that enrich people and communities.

According to Joseph Low, president (Vietnam), Real Estate, Keppel, the company is delighted to be co-organising the event with long-standing partners, Sovico Group and Phu Long.

“Keppel has been present in Vietnam for more than 30 years and remains committed to leveraging its expertise in urban space solutions to help create vibrant, future-ready environments. As we deepen our engagement in Hanoi, we aim to contribute meaningfully to the capital’s evolving urban landscape,” said Low.

As a co-organiser, Keppel has curated a series of interactive and family-friendly experiences through thoughtfully designed booths and hands-on activities, inviting visitors to explore the company’s journey in Vietnam and learn about its latest commercial and residential projects.

Visitors to Keppel’s exhibition areas can take part in traditional Lunar New Year-inspired activities such as drawing lots, calligraphy, paper-fan crafting, and other interactive experiences. These activities offer an engaging way for the public to learn more about Keppel and its projects, while receiving festive gifts.

This year’s festival centres on the story of Phuc Ma (Lucky Horse), the official mascot of Home Hanoi Xuan 2026, symbolising strength, prosperity, and forward momentum. Highlights include the spring flower street, check-in activities at the central Phuc Ma installation, exhibitions of Vietnamese antiques and traditional costumes, Dong Ho folk painting experiences, and a range of traditional folk games.
