PacFest 2026

PacFest, presented by the Kaio Foundation, is a vibrant celebration of Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander cultures right here in California. Inspired by the world-renowned Festival of Pacific Arts & Culture (FestPAC), PacFest brings the spirit of the islands to our local community. Just as FestPAC has served as a vital platform for preserving and showcasing Pacific Islander heritage for 50 years, PacFest aims to connect our community with the rich traditions, artistry, and diverse cultures of the Pacific. Through music, dance, food, and more, PacFest offers a chance to experience the aloha spirit and learn about the unique contributions of Native Hawaiian Pacific Island communities.
