Plano ASIAFEST 2018 This year marks the Fifteenth Anniversary of Plano AsiaFest. Over the course of the past 15 years, Plano AsiaFest has become one of the largest Asian American Heritage Festivals in the region. The success of this festival would not have been possible without the many talented members of the community creating the stage performances, the legions of volunteers from area businesses, PISD and other area school districts, the cultural and business booth vendors, and the food vendors. In particular, we are grateful for the continued support of the Mayor of Plano and the members of the Plano City Council, the Plano Cultural Affairs Commission, and our sponsors who make this event possible. Visitors are always pleasantly surprised by the goods, services and information that various vendors have to offer. So please take some time and visit them while you are in Haggard Park today. Last but not least, we want to thank the visitors to ASIAFEST. We hope you enjoy the Festival and we invite you to join us by becoming sponsors, volunteers and booth participants in the future. Please feel free to email us at committee@asianamericanheritage.org for more information.
