Get ready to experience Korean culture like never before at London Hallyu Festival 2026.
Taking place on 4–5 July 2026 at Beverley Park, New Malden, the festival will bring together the energy of K-POP, authentic Korean street food, fan-participation programmes, Korean products, live entertainment and traditional culture in one outdoor celebration.
Held just before the BTS London concerts at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 6 and 7 July 2026, London Hallyu Festival 2026 will welcome Hallyu fans, K-POP fans, BTS ARMY, families, young people and local communities from across London, the UK and Europe.
During the daytime, visitors can enjoy:
- K-POP random play dance
- K-POP contests
- Fan-participation programmes
- K-Culture experience activities
- Photo zones
- K-Goods Market
- Korean lifestyle products
- K-Food Zone
- Diversity Zone
- Taste K-Chimaek experience
The K-Food Zone will offer a variety of Korean food experiences, including Korean chicken and beer, hotteok, tteokbokki, sundae and other popular Korean street foods. Visitors will also be able to discover K-Goods, fandom merchandise and Korean lifestyle products that are not always easily available in the UK.
In the evening, the festival will feature a live performance by the rising K-POP band Catch The Young, followed by a DJ party from 6:00pm to 8:30pm, creating a lively fan-centred atmosphere from day to night.
Catch The Young, the rising five‑piece band under Evermore Entertainment, are making their UK debut bringing their bright, melodic youth‑rock sound to a European stage for the first time. Since their 2023 debut with Fragments of Youth, the group have carved out a distinct identity within Korea’s new generation of performance‑driven idol bands, pairing clean, guitar‑forward arrangements with earnest, narrative‑led songwriting.
Their recent releases — including the Fragments of Odyssey series — have strengthened their reputation for polished musicianship and cohesive band storytelling. For UK audiences tracking the evolution of Korea’s band scene beyond DAY6 and Xdinary Heroes, Catch The Young’s appearance at the London Hallyu Festival offers a chance to see a group still in the early, energetic phase of their ascent.
London Hallyu Festival 2026 is more than a festival. It is a cultural platform connecting K-POP fandom, Korean food, Korean products, youth participation, diversity, local communities and cultural exchange.
