Hung King's death anniversary is 3 days off (from April 5 to 7), April 30 and May 1 holidays are 5 days off (from April 30 to May 4). In order to increase the attractiveness of the destination, the provincial Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism has requested localities and service businesses to focus on improving facilities, renewing products, improving service quality, promoting and connecting together to create a chain of all-inclusive services, organizing events with promotions, providing a variety of resort packages to attract tourists. At the same time, register prices, sell at the registered price, do not use brokers, and do not engage in unfair competition that negatively affects the tourism image of the province.

The Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism also requested localities and businesses to have plans to assign forces to perform rescue tasks at beaches and swimming pools, maintaining security and order, and ensuring safety for tourists and people to enjoy and relax.

In March, the entire Ba Ria - Vung Tau province welcomed more than 1.6 million visitors for sightseeing and tourism, an increase of nearly 24% over the same period last year. Of which, the number of overnight guests reached 440,753, a decrease of nearly 10% over the same period. Notably, although the number of overnight guests decreased, revenue recorded an increase of more than 16% over the same period, reaching nearly 610 billion VND. Tourism revenue is estimated at nearly 50 billion VND.

Accommodation revenue increased thanks to the increase in international tourists. In addition, the resort and 3-4-5 star hotel sector has actively organized many programs to stimulate demand and attract customers to use package services, thereby increasing tourists' spending.

April has two long holidays: Hung King's death anniversary (3 days off, from April 5-7) and April 30, May 1 (5 days off, from April 30 to May 4). This is a favorable opportunity for people to travel. The Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism continues to encourage service businesses to diversify product packages, promote and stimulate demand, and at the same time advise the Provincial People's Committee on a plan to organize events to serve tourists during the April 30 holiday.
