Hello Taiwan Bubble Tea Festival returns to the streets of New York!

Two years ago, New Yorkers stormed into the first ever Bubble Tea festival at Times Square after New York Times published the article on Bubble Tea calling it as “blobs” and referred the tea as “exotic” despite this national drink of Taiwan has been in New York for almost two decades.

Last year, a group of artists put together the world’s first ever pop-up for bubble tea named “Lab B.” that attracted thousands of New Yorkers to immerse in the art installations made for the drink.

This year, we are combing the festival with the art installations for the 3rd annual Hello Taiwan Bubble Tea Festival, set to take place on 9/21 @ Chelsea (8th Avenue between 16 and 17 streets).

Visitors will get to taste bubble tea from major and boutique vendors in addition to update social media photos with in Lab B’s giant Bubble tea cup and ball pit. Tasting ticket is only $10 that includes samples from bubble tea vendors. Also included in the ticket is the Brown Sugar Bubble Tea Ice pop! They have been sold out everywhere in Taiwan and New York.  

Buy a ticket online or day of (while supplies last) and you’ll be able to sample cups of bubble tea from major players and boutiques in the bubble tea business. Additional drinks will be available for purchase, and also come out for: 

* Bubble Tea themed souvenirs such as earrings, pens and cell phone cases.
* Gigantic Bubble Tea Inflatable and ball pit
* Night Market Style Food
* Creative Market featuring Arts & Crafts
