Panda Fest Orlando is happening February 27-March 1, 2026 at Festival Park, 2911 E Robinson St in Orlando. This is one of the biggest outdoor Asian food festivals in the US, featuring 80+ Asian food vendors, over 200 Asian street food options, 20+ merchandise vendors, and cultural performances.

Friday runs 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Saturday goes 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Sunday wraps up 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Early bird tickets are $10, general admission is $14, and VIP is $35. Saturday tickets cost $2 more than other days. All tickets are non-refundable.

General admission gets you two free gifts: a customized Panda pin with Orlando features and a headband. You also get access to the Panda inflatable, all food and merchandise vendors, and Asian culture performances. VIP tickets include three free gifts, fast pass entrance, exclusive VIP areas, and private bathrooms.

The food vendor lineup covers cuisines from across Asia. Over 200 street food options means you’re eating your way through different regions and styles all weekend. Merchandise vendors sell Panda-related items and Asian cultural products. Panda inflatables and a bounce house add activities for kids.

This is family-friendly. Kids six and up need tickets. Kids under six get in free and receive a free headband. Strollers are allowed. Only service dogs permitted.

Panda Fest makes getting there easy with multiple options. Rideshare or public transit are the most convenient ways to arrive. If you prefer to drive, there are several reserved parking lots set up specifically for attendees, including Orlando Executive Airport, Central Florida Leadership Academy, Orlando Parks & Recreation, and Festival Park Beach Volleyball Courts. All parking lots are operated by third parties.

Tickets are available through Eventbrite. Panda Fest Orlando runs February 27-March 1, 2026 at Festival Park in downtown Orlando.
