Presale Tickets Now On Sale for Apr 14-15 Hot & Spicy Festival

With five weeks to go until our inaugural Hot & Spicy Festival at Galaxy Soho on Apr 14-15, things are starting to seriously heat up with close to 40 of Beijing's top purveyors of chili-infused grub already onboard and waiting to unleash hell (more on those below).

As with all of our previous events, the day won't only be dedicated to eating but will also have music, DJs, dancing troupes, and games on hand to entertain you in-between rounds to each and (if you're feeling particularly adventurous) every booth.

Following the trend of past Beijinger events, you can expect this round to be even hotter and spicier

Best yet, you can now ensure you and your friends a spot at what promises to be the hottest event of the spring by buying RMB 20 presale tickets. By doing so, not only will you save money compared to buying on the day but you will get priority entry and be gifted a spice-themed bandana souvenir upon arrival. Wrap it around your head, fly it as a surrender flag, tie it to your dog, or use it to mop up the endless beads of sweat – do with it what you will!

Behold, our groovy, ultra-absorbent, exclusive Hot & Spicy Festival bandana
