Experience the vibrant fusion of Asian arts, crafts and mouth-watering cuisine in Wellington - where the East meets West in a celebration of culture and flavour.

Food hall | Shed 6

Shed 6 will be transformed to a food hall where the aromas and an array of delicious Asian cuisines await you. Indulge your taste buds in a culinary journey featuring diverse Asian cuisines. Featuring sizzling stir-fries, savoury dumplings, sweet treats and more, our stall holders will share the rich tastes of their traditions through their love of food.

Food is an important part of Asian culture bringing families and friends together to share a meal. The Lunar New Year is a culinary celebration that also creates a conduit for family reunion, sharing not just delicious dishes but the warmth of precious family time together. 

Festival Day also includes a five-hour cultural entertainment programme at TSB Arena, featuring perfomances of song, music, dance, martial arts, Chinese Opera and lion and dragon dancers. See Festival Day – Cultural Entertainment here
