About Korean Festival Houston
In 2008, the folks behind the Korean-American Society of Houston (KASH) organized the very first Korean Festival Houston at the Houston Community College (Spring Branch) parking lot with the support of local community and business organizations.
Bolstered by the enthusiastic support from the community, KASH made the decision to move the Korean Festival to its current home at Discovery Green the following year.
After years of extraordinary growth, the Korean Festival Houston now serves more than 35,000 visitors during its single-day event. It partners with dozens of global and local sponsors to bring an exhilarating and spectacular showcase of Korean culture to the heart of Houston.
