The BreadWander Festival is set to bring a delectable blend of culture and cuisine to Shanghai from March 7 to 9 at Columbia Circle.

The three-day event, from 11am to 8pm each day, promises a unique celebration of bread, pastries and community.

Themed "Bread for all, Rose too," it offers attendees a chance to explore both the bustling Bread Avenue and the serene Rose Market, where visitors can enjoy the delicious world of bread and the calming charm of roses.

On Bread Avenue, food lovers will encounter 70 stalls, each offering a selection of breads. From classic creations to innovative twists, every bite tells the story of the bakers' passion and craftsmanship.

For those seeking a more tranquil experience, the Rose Market provides a relaxing atmosphere with flower stalls, hand-poured coffee and artisanal pastas.

It's the perfect spot to unwind, enjoy a warm sandwich, or simply take in the surroundings. And for first-time visitors or those in search of specific items, a dedicated inquiry booth will help guide visitors to their favorite products and new discoveries.

One of the festival's unique features is the Bread-Rose Exchange, where guests can trade their favorite breads for fresh roses, or vice versa.

This fun activity invites attendees to share in the spirit of community while connecting over food and flowers. In addition, the festival will host the "Baker's Sports Day," a light-hearted competition where bakers show off their skills through a series of playful, bread-inspired challenges.
