OzAsia Festival stands as Australia’s leading contemporary arts festival engaging with Asia. Renowned for its bold, genre-defying lineup, the festival captivates both audiences and critics alike year after year.

Spanning three weeks each spring, OzAsia Festival celebrates the best in theatre, dance, music, visual arts, literature, cuisine, and cultural events from across Asia. Its diverse program features talented artists from around the globe, making it a must-see event in the arts calendar.

“The impressively curated performance and exhibition program is making OzAsia Festival an essential destination for interstate visitors as well as local audiences.”

— Daily Review, 2018

Family audiences love OzAsia Festival’s Moon Lantern Trail – a free, colourful, four day, outdoor event; and foodies adore the Lucky Dumpling Market - the vibrant and ever-popular OzAsia Festival hub offering delicious food inspired by Asian cuisine, bars, and free entertainment throughout the festival. OzAsia Festival’s writing and ideas program In Other Words also showcases conversations about Australia’s engagement with Asia in the largest dedicated showcase for Asian and Asian Australian writers and thinkers.

There is something for everyone at OzAsia Festival and we invite you to join us when we celebrate the best of contemporary Asia in Australia each year!

Adelaide Festival Centre's OzAsia Festival is produced on Kaurna land. We respect the Kaurna people as the traditional custodians of the Adelaide Plains. We honour their cultural and spiritual relationship with their country and we do so in the spirit of reconciliation.
