With the tang and crunch of your favourite Asian dishes, the spice and sizzle of grills and barbecues and tempting street food at every turn, the Asia Street Food Festival by the Yarra might be Melbourne’s most delicious festival.
Expect the sights, sounds and aromas to transport you to an authentic Asian street market right here in Melbourne. Added to the menu are folklore, games and performances and lanterns lighting your way at a festival that offers the very best in Asian culture.
The City of Melbourne is proud to support family-friendly festivals, many of which reflect our rich cultural diversity. Australians with Asian ancestry have helped shape our wonderful city for generations. The Asia Street Food Festival by the Yarra offers the chance to truly immerse yourself in the traditional cuisine and storytelling of many Asian nations.
Melbourne’s diversity is one of its greatest strengths, and events such as this deepen cultural connections within one of the world’s great multicultural success stories. I congratulate all involved and wish you a terrific festival.
