About this event
What to expect
From the creators of Melbourne's Asia Street Food Festival comes Colours of Asia – Garden of Wonders, a celebration where the flavours, stories and traditions of Asia come to life.
Across two weekends at Alexandra Gardens, wander among handcrafted bamboo huts and glowing lanterns, discover artisan market stalls, and enjoy music, dance and cultural performances inspired by Asia's folklore, legends and traditions.
At the heart of the festival is the Wonders Menu, a collection of signature dishes presented under specially created festival names inspired by cultural stories, hidden treasures and the diverse flavours of Asia. Each dish invites you to try something unexpected and discover the story behind it.
Beyond the Wonders menu, explore more than 200 dishes from over 30 food vendors, including family businesses sharing recipes passed down through generations.
As the sun sets, lanterns and warm lights bring the riverside village to life. Settle in with friends and family, share your favourite discoveries, and enjoy the performances as the evening goes on.
Proudly supported by the City of Melbourne.
