Produced by the Culture and Entertainment Department of VTV, Sparkling Summer is a large-scale annual program dedicated to children across the country on International Children’s Day.
Drawing inspiration from the pure dreams of childhood, Sparkling Summer 2026 will take children on a magical adventure guided by the lovable character named Little Sun. One of the biggest highlights of this year’s event is its venue. Breaking away from traditional studio settings, the program will take place on a grand outdoor stage at VTV Square. With major investments in stage design, sound, and lighting, the venue is expected to transform into a vibrant “summer world” that offers children an exciting and emotional artistic experience.

Sparkling Summer is not only an entertainment show but also an interactive space where children can let their imaginations un wild. Young audiences joining the event will be immersed in a series of exciting activities.
The stage will feature characters that step straight out of fairy tales and movies. Children will have the chance to see giant robots, meet powerful Marvel superheroes, reunite with Little Red Riding Hood, and enjoy breathtaking magic acts and giant spinning circus performances. Special appearances by famous football players are also expected to inspire children with the spirit of sports.
Young audiences will also have opportunities to interact live with popular child stars who are beloved by many viewers today. In addition, the organizing committee has prepared many meaningful gifts for children attending the event.
Sparkling Summer is scheduled to air at 20:00 on May 31, 2026, on VTV3. Let the countdown begin for a joyful and laughter-filled Sparkling Summer this International Children’s Day!
