Looking for fun things to do with your family in the next couple of weeks? Take a look at our top picks:
Juicy Burger Fest
Juicy Burger Fest is back this Dragon Boat holiday from May 31 to Jun 2 at XidianJiYi Funstown. We’ll be firing up the grills to bring you three days full of bun-believable burgers, ice cold brews, live music, entertainment and more.
More than 40 of Beijing’s best burger slingers will be on site serving up everything from classic cheeseburgers to innovative exclusive creations, fusion masterpieces and vegetarian and vegan delights that even carnivores will crave!
This year’s theme is Gods of the Grill, so channel your inner deity and come dressed as your favorite god, goddess, or mythological hero. Think Western legendary figures like Zeus, Thor, Hera and Aphrodite; embrace Chinese figures like the Money God (Caishen), Nezha, Chang’e, Nüwa; or perhaps make your own creative take on a Burger God – we want to see it!
Mark your calendars for May 31-Jun 2, and get ready to sink your teeth into the juiciest event of the year. We’ll see you there!
