Welcome to the first ever McKinney Asian Festival taking place near the square in downtown McKinney, Texas, a city with over a century of rich history. Over the years, Asian culture has spread to every corner of the globe, and McKinney is no exception. While Asians make up 60% of the world's population, presently just 11% of McKinney's residents are Asian. The McKinney Asian Festival provides a wonderful opportunity for this community to experience what Asian culture has to offer. We anticipate more than 70 vendors for guests to explore, including authentic Asian food trucks/booths, arts & crafts merchants, a photobooth with traditional Asian attire, and family-friendly, hands-on activities with prizes. The highlight of the event will be on stage performances by groups coming from different Asian backgrounds. Once the event concludes at 6 p.m., there will also be a lantern walk through the streets of downtown McKinney that will serve as a spectacular finale to an exceptional event.
