Our Biggest Halloween Bazaar Yet
The AHI Halloween Bazaar is an annual community event that welcomes everyone to join in the celebrations, with free admission for all visitors. Bringing together AHI families, students, staff, local businesses and members of the wider community, the bazaar offers a chance for people to connect and enjoy the festivities beyond the school day.
For the 2026 edition, the celebrations extended across all three AHI campuses, with activities and entertainment taking place in different event spaces. The main stage at 31 Giang Van Minh hosted a programme of performances and games, while the sub stage at 19 Giang Van Minh offered its own line-up of entertainment. Together, the venues created a full day of activities for visitors of different ages and interests.
