Asian Festival, nonprofit 501 c is organizing the Culture Night celebrating the Lunar New Year on Friday, January 12 and Saturday, January 13, 2024.

We hosted the Asian Festival 2022, partnering with the City of Mesa to unveil the Asian District Signage and Culture Night 2023 promoting Asian District. The Festival was an eye-catching tourist attraction, positively impacting the city economically by generating over $400K in revenue. It was a great success and attracted more than 20,000 attendees. 

Asian Festival 2024 will be an extraordinary event, we are flying in the Living National Legend of Borneo (Malaysia) to perform Rainforest Music and workshops and also world famous Human Flow Art Master Ong. We are confident that we will create great awareness with our extensive publicity in the press, TV, social media platforms, multi channels marketing and partner with influencers. We also send out thousands of flyers and road signage to promote Asian Festival. 

More than 45% are first time to the Asian Festival. Thank you to 150 volunteers, who are our backbone of this event specially City of Mesa, Mesa & Scottsdale Police, Mesa Fire Dept, Mesa Community College, FBI, ASU, Bank of America, students, local communities and businesses. 

The Asian Festival mission is to promote a peaceful world by increasing international awareness and cultural understanding.  It is a time to build community through businesses and family oriented activity.   The Asian Festival is the inaugural event, that we hope to expand to various other events supporting the Asian District throughout the year.  Our focus is organizing diverse cultural festivals, workshops and events for the public to learn and experience another culture, meet international friends, improve their language ability, taste of Asian cuisine, arts & crafts, tea ceremony, cultural dance and promote the value of cultures and traditions.
