Friday, 30 October—Sunday, 15 November

Dumplings, noodles, baos, salads and curries – this is what’s on offer at the 2020 Dumpling Market, aka the annual festival of food best enjoyed on the Riverbank.

The 2020 Lucky Dumpling Market kicks off this Friday as part of the annual OzAsia Festival, which aims bring together the city’s best Asian fare.

This includes CityMag favourites: Indonesian-fusion GANG GANG, chargrilled Filipino Project, Thai FIRE by Soi 38, and CBD dessert royalty Shibui.

A range of vegan and gluten-free options are also available, as well as alcoholic beverages from Coopers, Yalumba Wine and Sake Hut bars. Non-alcoholic drops, like bubble tea, are also on the menu.

The 2020 Lucky Dumpling Market has moved to a new, COVID-safe location, Elder Park, as the OzAsia Festival proper refocusses to offer a pandemic-safe experience, including a mostly virtual program.

As part of the LDM’s COVID-safe adaptation, the activation will accept card payments only.

As well as food, the Market also has a calendar of free-to-view live entertainment and music, including tai chi demonstrations, square dance workshops and a Cantonese opera.
