Colours of Asia: Garden of Wonders

Wander past lantern gardens, graze on street food and watch the dancing at Colours of Asia: Garden of Wonders in Alexandra Gardens!

This free festival for families and kids runs across two weekends in November, and the team behind Asia Street Food Festival presents it with support from the City of Melbourne.

What to Expect at Colours of Asia: Garden of Wonders

Street food from across Asia sits at the centre of the festival, with more than 35 vendors serving over 200 dishes, special creations on the Wonders Menu, artisan market stalls alongside, and music, dance, art and storytelling running through the program. Performances happen under the stars.
