The two-day event featured cultural performances and music, authentic street food from the Philippines, and former colonial Spanish and ASEAN dishes including Korean, Indian, Sri Lankan, Thai and Vietnamese cuisines, general stalls, kids activities and many more.

The beautiful weather in Melbourne paved way to an enjoyable picnic in the park and entertainment for everyone at Argyle Square on Lygon Street, Carlton.

The festival was held on Nov 19 - 20 2016.
