The Arizona Bao and Dumpling Festival is returning for its 7th year with the Fried Chicken and Wings Festival. Our goal is to help small businesses grow and a place for people to discover new foods and try new items. Fried chicken is enjoyed throughout the world and every culture has their own twist on it. With one ticket you can enjoy a variety of fried chicken wings dumplings and bao. 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 get your fill of dumplings and wings. This global inspired food festival is about showcasing small businesses and their creativity!

DETAILS:

For our sixth year the event is outdoors. We will have local food businesses and menu prices range from $5 - $17. We will also have a curated anime marketplace with local artists. Boba desserts and other Asian dishes will be available too. Parking is free in in the parking garages. We highly encourage carpooling or rideshare. Feel free to cosplay!

All food and drink is sold separately. All of the local businesses will be collecting their own sales. They do not offset the event production costs. Most vendors will accept both cash and card. We do recommend bringing cash for this event and coming with a group of your friends and families to try a little bit from everywhere! Event times will be staggered to improve flow of the event. You can stay as long as you like and ticket times are only for how early you can arrive.
