Attention burger fans! At long last, the city’s finest grill masters will unite once again. That’s right, the 2020 Beijing Burger Festival has arrived, and what’s more, you only have to wait two weeks to sink your teeth into the finest beef and buns that Beijing has to offer – so save the date: Sep 18, 19, and 20 in the entire north half of 望京小街 Wangjing Walk. Grease those tastebuds on Friday from 3pm-9pm and then come back for seconds (or thirds) on Saturday and Sunday from 11am-9pm. It is bound to be tons of juicy fun for the entire family!

It’s been a long year, and Beijing could use a hero to save the day – not to mention a whole bunch of entertainment, music, activities, and of course, food and drink vendors that make Burger Fest the beefy blast that it is every year. This year will be extra super fun and tasty, however, as hordes of superheroes pour into the Wangjing Walk, threatening to munch down on crimes of blandness while locking up dry and tasteless burgers once and for all!
What’s more, the fest will feature the superpowers of our title sponsor JSS and their caped delivery crusaders, a great way to get your favorite burger – or just about anything else, from fine foods to fresh groceries – brought straight to your door.
Burger lovers are encouraged to dress up as their favorite superhero – we may be restricted from using trademarked characters, but that doesn’t mean you can’t! If you’d rather not scour Taobao for a costume, though, then you’ll definitely want to grab an early-bird ticket, which comes with a special superhero eye mask! But if you really want to get your burger senses tingling, then opt for the Super Package, which includes an exclusive Super Burgerman or Burger logo T-shirt, a JSS tote bag with an RMB 198 JSS delivery card, and a superhero eye mask.
It’s like Halloween came deliciously early! Take the superhero theme and make it your own! This is a great opportunity for both you and your kids to channel your favorite superheroes. And who doesn’t like a good burger? This might be one of the few times when mealtime turns into fun-time. Here’s an idea for a family costume: The Incredibles! The list of possibilities is endless!
Furthermore, if there’s one thing a hero should fight for, it’s your right to have an opinion on the best burger in Beijing – truth and justice will be served – so come out to the fest and try all of the latest and greatest burgers before deciding for yourself whether they hold up to the classics, then vote for your favorite in the 2020 Burger Cup. Be sure to follow the Beijinger’s official WeChat account (ID: the Beijinger) to get your ballot when voting starts on Friday, Sep 18, the same day the festival starts.
