I would appreciate if you explain why "a" has been added before "very"in the following sentence:
I hope you have a very nice evening.
Is this sentence still correct without "a" before very?
I hope you have very nice evening.

The word "very" is irrelevant. "nice evening" takes a determiner, in this case "a". Putting "very" in front of it doesn't change that; it still needs the "a".
