Since it is summertime, that means there are endless opportunities to have fun.

This weekend is a prime example of a fun opportunity to celebrate.

Tents and booths are being set up as we speak for the festivities at Calder Plaza.

If you want to see what is going on for the Grand Rapids Asian Pacific Festival, it runs from Friday to Sunday at 11 am!

There is something for the whole family with good food from different local vendors and merchants you can buy products from.

It all starts with the opening ceremony on Friday, June 14th at 4:00 PM. Plus, the festival is adding new performances, food vendors, and even a new drink!

You can try a Filipino-inspired craft brew and a dragon fruit seltzer at this year's Grand Rapids Asian Pacific Festival.

Friday's festival fun includes:

• a K-pop dance competition,
• a neon Glow Party,
• and a Lion dance performance

Throughout the weekend, you can have fun with a spicy ramen competition, hula lessons, yoga, and more.
