The Festival opens on Saturday, May 9, 2026 with Hermán Olivera y Orquesta Taino to kick off its 26th season. The Festival features over 100 free performances from May to November in Downtown San Francisco."
"San Francisco's biggest South Asian celebration is back, and for the first time ever, it lands at Yerba Buena Gardens, one of downtown's most iconic arts and cultural destinations. On July 24 and November 13, Yerba Buena Gardens, Jessie Square, and Yerba Buena Lane will transform into a vibrant, open-air celebration of music, dance, food, and culture-bringing together community, creativity, and connection in the heart of downtown."
"At the heart of it all is the vibrant Bhangra & Beats atmosphere, a family-friendly celebration where traditional Punjabi rhythms meet Bay Area energy. Non Stop Bhangra collective will once again lead the experience with its signature mix of interactive dance lessons, beautiful performances, live dhol drumming, DJs, and an open dance floor, all flowing into a lively marketplace with food vendors, local makers, community activations, restaurant and bar specials, and family-friendly activities."
"Come for the music, stay for the energy. Whether you're dancing, eating, shopping, or just taking it all in, there's something here for everyone. Free RSVP coming soon. Now in its 26th year, the Festival will run throughout the week and most weekends, presenting 6 months of admission-free performances reflecting the rich cultures and creativity of the Bay"
