The event is organised every two years by the Department of Fine Arts, Photography and Exhibitions under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

The festival aims to encourage the development of young photographers, contribute to the promotion of creative activities, and publish works that reflect contemporary life through the lens of the young Vietnamese photographer force.

The photo set titled "Landmark 81 - Aspiration to rise" won the Gold Medal of Young Photography Festival 2019 in the category of realistic photo.

The Young Photography Festival is also an activity for young people who love photography throughout the country to exchange, learn, meet, introduce creative achievements, and supplement their next force for Vietnamese photography.
