The Laos Festival is filled with Laotian dancing, music, workshops, and — arguably best of all — food.
What happens?
2025 marks the 70th anniversary of Japan-Laos diplomatic relations.
Past editions of this event have seen an estimated 180,000 people turn out to experience Laotian culture. Performances include dance troupes, traditional musicians, Lao and Japanese singers as well as workshops for language, dance, and cooking. Children will be kept entertained in the Kids Corner with plenty of fun activities.
Wander through over 60 food stalls, where you can sample authentic Lao dishes, beer, coffee, and tea. Catch live performances of traditional Lao music and dance, and experience the excitement of Boun Bang Fai (the Lao Rocket Festival parade). Shop for handmade textiles, ethnic costumes, and specialty products
