FestivalAsia London: the largest indoor event of all things Asia for the first time in the UK

FestivalAsia, London’s biggest indoor event about all things Asia, will open its doors from 15th to 17th May, 2015. FestivalAsia is the first of its kind in the UK.

FestivalAsia is set apart by any other event through encompassing all Asian Cultures: you will be entertained, moved, enlightened, and find information, resources, products, see performances – all in three days, as if you are travelling throughout the whole of Asia!

Either interested in Asia, or from the UK Asian community, or indeed just curious to know more about the fascinating Asian continent, you will find what you search for at FestivalAsia.

Over the course of three days, this pioneering event will incorporate food, fashion, spirituality, art, music, performance, martial arts, culture, artefacts, massage stalls, yoga, henna artists, clothes, spices, meditation rooms…

The Performance Stage at FestivalAsia will feature an array of performers throughout the day, besides a Martial Arts Stage for demonstrations of several different martial arts, a Spiritual Room, a Cultural Room, children entertainment and a Cookery Theatre!

The selected venue for FestivalAsia is Tobacco Dock, a central London venue full of character, located near Tower Bridge. Over the past few years Tobacco Dock has become a key venue in London, hosting several very popular events (eg the “Taste Of” food festival). FestivalAsia will utilise this beautiful structure to transport our guests to a world away from London and into the Far East – a dream come true.

FestivalAsia is created and produced by Lilisan Ltd, in collaboration with Barley Arts International Ltd.
