Description

The 2nd annual Filipino Festival is a celebration of culture and the amazing Filipino foods that make up a huge part. There will also be a variety of anime/retail vendors at this Asian food festival. This free food festival is about highlighting the diversity of food and an opportunity for small businesses to show their culture through their food. The is a double header festival with the Arizona Dumpling Fest, a preview of Arizona's longest standing bao and dumpling fest. The Arizona Bao and Dumpling Festival is the original themed Asian food festival. What is a bao? From Food Republic, a bao or known as a steamed bun or baozi is a "complete meal conveniently packed away in a white, warm, soft bun." Or what we like to say, an amazing delicious experience. Baos are a form of dumplings and you can try different dumplings from various cultures from takoyaki to potstickers. Come both days to try a little bit from every local business.

Centennial Plaza Park behind Peoria City Hall
8401 W Monroe St, Peoria, AZ 85345
