Celebrate Little Saigon 2026
About this Event
Celebrate Little Saigon is a free, all-ages community street festival honoring the food and culture of Seattle’s Vietnamese and Southeast Asian communities. What began in 2011 as a grassroots event with four food vendors and folding chairs has grown into a summer tradition welcoming hundreds of attendees each year.
Held across Hoa Mai Park, Nisei Veterans Hall Parking Lot, and Little Saigon Creative, the festival features local performers and vendors of the Southeast Asian diaspora who have ties to Little Saigon. Enjoy live music, family-friendly activities, and playful programming like the Phở Eating Contest, Drag Bingo, and the FIRST-EVER Spring Roll Wrapping Contest. More than two dozen local vendors will offer food, drinks, handmade goods, and local resources, reflecting the neighborhood’s cultural richness.
Organized by Friends of Little Sài Gòn, Celebrate Little Saigon is more than a festival; it’s a space to honor heritage, support small businesses, and build joy and connection in the heart of Little Saigon.
Join us on Saturday, August 16th, 2026, from 12 pm - 5 pm, as we celebrate our roots and our future together.Learn more about the event: https://flsseattle.org/celebrate-little-saigon/
