Get ready for Austin’s biggest and most colorful celebration! KhushFest ’26 brings American and South Asian cultures together for an unforgettable day of music, food, dance, and vibrant colors in the heart of downtown Austin.

“Khush” means happy in Hindi—and that’s exactly what this festival delivers. Enjoy non-stop multicultural music as DJs blend Bollywood beats with top English and Spanish hits, creating a high-energy vibe for all ages. Each wristband includes 2 FREE packs of color (while supplies last), with more available for purchase.

Indulge in some of Austin’s favorite local food trucks featuring authentic Indian cuisine, Indian-fusion eats, BBQ, snow cones, sweets, and more.
