Get ready to unleash your inner K-pop stan, San Francisco! The Excelsior District is about to transform into a vibrant cultural explosion that’ll make your TikTok followers seriously jealous.

On Friday night, the Norton Street parking lot is transforming into a K-pop paradise that promises more excitement than a BTS music video. From 5 pm to 10 pm, local organizers are serving up a night market experience that’s equal parts cultural celebration and pure entertainment.

Dance, Music, and Pure Magic

DJ Theo Tabora will be spinning tracks that’ll have you moving faster than a K-pop choreography, while promised performers include actual K-pop dancers who’ll make your dance moves look like awkward middle school shuffling. And did we mention giant Labubus? Because yes, that’s happening too.

More Than Just Music

This isn’t just another neighborhood event – it’s a full-blown cultural experience. With a pop-up record shop, vendors, a raffle for a K-pop themed gift basket, and a photo booth, you’ll have more Instagram content than you know what to do with. The event is a collaboration between the Civic Joy Fund, Excelsior Action Group, and the Mayor’s Office of Economic & Workforce Development.

So grab your lightsticks, practice your best K-pop pose, and get ready for a night that’ll make your cultural heart sing. San Francisco, we’re about to get very international.
