Attending the program were Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha, Editor-in-Chief of Communist Review Hoang Trung Dung, and VOV President Do Tien Sy.

The program was divided into three parts, with part 1 “Hanoi Hears the Victory News” recreating the emotional morning of April 30, 1975, when Hanoi residents first heard the historic victory announcement on VOV's loudspeakers.

Part 2 titled “Marching to Saigon” portrays the vibrant atmosphere in the South as liberation forces entered Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City), featuring historical footage, eyewitness accounts, and iconic songs.

Part 3 themed “The Nation After Reunification” reflects the renewal, integration, and development of Vietnam in the post-reunification era.
