The 26th Arizona Asian Festival®
The 2026 Arizona Asian Festival builds on a remarkable legacy while introducing innovative programming that reflects today’s cultural landscape. Our festival fosters an equitable environment where attendees don’t just observe traditions—they actively participate in meaningful cultural exchange.
Through interactive features such as the Avenue of Cultures (art, craft, music), Blended Brewing (traditional and modern Asian teas), Kaleidoscope Kids (crafts, games, workshops), Heroes’ Haven (veteran community), Healthcare Hub (screenings and resources), and new additions like the Taiko Drumming Experience and Golden Phoenix Lion Dance, we transform cultural appreciation into active engagement.
By presenting classical and indigenous cultures through the integrated lenses of education, arts, and history, we offer an experience that is both entertaining and deeply enriching—solidifying our role as a trendsetter in cultural programming while honoring the heritage that sustains Asian communities.
This year, we proudly introduce a festival highlight for all ages through our partnership with AEGIS AI Cooperative, an Arizona-based innovation group focused on ethical AI, education, and creativity. Their groundbreaking AI Learning Zone, hosted at Aegis Nexus, invites attendees into a dynamic space where human-AI collaboration comes alive—merging art, culture, and technology in real time.
