K-Fest Overview
Our Journey: Celebrating Korean Culture
K-Fest serves as a bridge between generations and cultures, fostering community ties through authentic cuisine, art performances, and interactive experiences. It's a celebration of identity and cultural pride.
The Korean Cultural Festival (K-Fest) is an annual celebration of Korean heritage held every fall in the city of Santa Clara — the heart of Silicon Valley. Since its inception in 2019, K-Fest has grown into the Bay Area’s Korean cultural event, bringing together thousands of people to experience the richness and vibrancy of Korean tradition and modern creativity.
Organized by the Korean American Cultural Foundation (KACF), a nonprofit organization committed to celebrating and sharing Korean culture, K-Fest serves as a powerful bridge between generations, cultures, and communities. KACF envisions a world where Korean heritage is proudly preserved and appreciated across diverse audiences, fostering deeper cross-cultural understanding.
