20th Annual Assyrian Food Festival | San Jose

The annual festival, held on August 18 and 19, 2012, is an opportunity to showcase Assyrian food, traditions and educate the community about the Assyrian heritage as well as to preserve and to continue passing on Assyrian cultural traditions to the next generation.

If you enjoy trying authentic food, music, and dance, make plans to attend the festival. You can mingle with and learn about the people whose ancestral homeland is known in history as “the cradle of civilization.”

Admission, parking and shuttle service is free. No pets please.
