Overview
Sydneysiders are used to Tumbalong Park being overtaken by festivals, but coming up in February 2025 is one unlike the rest: The Artistry 2025. This is a festival all about international culture, art, music and food, bringing the tastes of the world to Tumbalong Park for the first weekend of February.
One of the biggest offerings for the festival (Friday, February 7 to Sunday, February 9) will be the Thai Select Food Village. Found adjacent to the Tumbalong Park stage, this miniaturised precinct will host 15 food stalls run by local Thai restaurants serving Thai street food in its most authentic forms. The lineup of stalls is organised by Thai Select, an extension of the Thai Ministry of Commerce that reviews Thai restaurants overseas and awards them certification for authentic taste, quality and services, meaning each stallholder is a best-in-class example of Sydney's Thai food scene.
Close your eyes, and you'll feel like you've been transported to the markets of Thailand. Here, you can get a plate of pad thai, som tum, khao soi, tom yum noodles, Thai-style fried pork and chicken, mango sticky rice, coconut pancakes and more.
Beyond the food, The Artistry will also offer live performances, pop-up workshops, a beer garden, muay thai and more. And unlike other festivals, it's free entry.
The Thai Select Food Village will run as a part of The Artistry 2025 from Friday, February 7 to Sunday, February 9. For more information, visit the Thai Trade Sydney page.
