What's on

The 2020 contest was the 15th year of the city's beef noodle evaluations and was grouped by broth: clear-stewed, red-braised and tomato. Applications ran 29 July to 31 August, finalists were announced 4 September and 74 shops competed in the final on 20 October 2020. Royal Heritage won red-braised (a result that triggered a public controversy), A-Niu won clear-stewed and Niu Jiangjun won tomato. Winners ran promotions until 31 October.

How to read festival information

We work to keep festival information right, but festivals are run by others and details change. Here is how to read what you see on SoupFestivals.

Confirmed or expected

A confirmed date was announced for that edition. An expected date, such as "usually held around mid-October", is an estimate based on past editions, not an announcement.

Places can be approximate

We show a map pin and directions only when the venue's location is verified. If it is still unconfirmed, we keep the known venue name and town without a pin.

Check before you travel

Dates, prices, menus and venues can change, and festivals can be cancelled. Always confirm with the organizer before you go. If their information differs from ours, theirs is the one to follow.

Help us keep it right

If something looks wrong, tell us and we will look at it. Organizers can claim their festival page to send us updates.
