From 20 to 29 June 2025, the Korean Cultural Centre in South Africa (KCCSA), in collaboration with the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA), is proudly presenting the Korean Food & Culture Festival at Sandton City’s Checkers Court.

This dynamic cultural showcase brings the tastes, textures, and traditions of Korea directly to the heart of Johannesburg. Visitors are invited to experience the vibrancy of Korean culture through an interactive lineup of activities—including Korean street food tastings, K-beauty product displays, traditional calligraphy, and a hanbok (traditional Korean attire) experience.

Open daily with free admission, the festival offers a welcoming space for South Africans to explore both the contemporary and traditional sides of Korea. Whether sampling signature dishes, snapping photos in a hanbok, or trying your hand at Korean script, the festival invites guests to immerse themselves in Korean culture—no passport required.

The event highlights the growing popularity and accessibility of Korean culture in South Africa, continuing KCCSA’s mission to foster cultural exchange and mutual appreciation between the two countries.

The Korean Food & Culture Festival is open to the public through 29 June.
