Arizona Dragon Boat Festival 2026
A long-running Tempe festival rooted in Chinese dragon boat tradition, with races, cultural performances, food vendors, and teams from across the region.
Tempe Tourism and AZDBA both describe the 2026 event as the 20th annual Arizona Dragon Boat Festival at Tempe Town Lake, bringing racing and cultural programming together in one weekend.
This is one of the clearest real-world Chinese cultural events in Arizona, so it belongs here far more than a made-up night market showcase.
