Thank You...

for making our 41st annual Oregon Asian Celebration a truly festive event! We look forward to seeing you on July 17, 2027, for another day of cultural sharing and community building.

We are deeply grateful to the individuals who contributed their time, energy, and creativity to make our 2026 festival a resounding success. From the sunny skies and smiling faces to the meaningful connections made throughout the day, it was you—the public—who truly gave meaning to the word community. Thank you for being part of this special day!

Our gratitude extends to our incredible performers from near and far, the dedicated martial arts schools and their talented students, and the organizations that provided fun, family-friendly activities for youth. We also thank the more than 80 food and marketplace vendors who created such a lively, festive atmosphere, as well as our amazing volunteers and event planning committee, whose behind-the-scenes efforts made it all look effortless.

This free community event would not be possible without the generous support of our sponsors, including Peak Credit Union, the City of Eugene, Lane County, Oregon Health Insurance Marketplace, KLCC-FM, and KVAL-TV.

Thank you all for helping us celebrate 41 years of culture, community, and connection!
