Asian Arts & Culture Society is excited to present the RBC Dumpling Tasting Soirée in Richmond in partnership with Tourism Richmond.

Following the success of the BC Dumpling Festivals at Town Centre Park in Coquitlam since 2022, the Society aims to bring together friends, colleagues, community members,and businesses from different cultures to share in culinary excellence, live entertainment, and a delightful evening out.

The RBC Dumpling Tasting Soirée will showcase an enhanced and unique sampling of dumplings from across a variety of cultures. We believe that food is the common thread we celebrate in all cultures and communities. The evening will include an assortment of dumpling food vendors, alcohol pairings, a dumpling tasting competition, live entertainment, and a silent and live auction with partial proceeds going to the Richmond Hospital Foundation.
