BiuBiu Xu, Founder of Panda Fest
Atlanta has always been a special city for Panda Fest. The curiosity, the energy, and the way people show up ready to try something new helped shape what the festival is today. This spring, we’re bringing back everything people have come to love, along with new vendors, performances and experiences that invites our guests to spend the day exploring, tasting new bites, connecting with each other, and learning about Asian culture.
Panda Fest features experiential activities, tastings, market fairs, and live performances! The festival brings communities together to celebrate the richness of Asian American and Pacific Islander cultures.
What can festival goers expect at Panda Fest
On top of a really fun time, festival goers can expect tons of delicious Asian cuisine, cultural events, and artisan craft.
The festival will feature more than 80 food vendors and trucks serving over 200 dishes inspired by cuisines from across Asia, ranging from street food classics to creative, festival-exclusive bites.
