The 2025 Charlotte Asian Festival and Charlotte Dragon Boat Festival is an annual family-oriented event is a celebration of Asian cultures. We welcome the Asian and non-Asian community in and around Mecklenburg County and throughout the Carolinas. The festival celebrates Asian cultures, diversity, ethnicity, roots and history. During the festival, there is an all-day program with singing/dancing/talent, vendors, and dragon boat race.

VAC will participate in the dragon boat race with team members from the Charlotte community. We will also have a vendor booth selling pandan waffles (pre-packaged) and rice hats. The booth will also showcase Vietnamese culture and artifacts.
