SEE EVENT DETAILS
The MLK2026 Music Festival celebrates its fourteenth year, featuring award-winning artists and performers on the main stage at San Francisco's Yerba Buena Gardens. This year's music festival is dedicated to the life of long-time Yerba Buena Gardens Festival producer, Marcelo Aviles, who passed away January 9th.

The NorcalMLK Foundation's MLK Music Festival is a spectacular celebration of artistry, culture, and unity that takes center stage during our annual MLK Celebrations. In partnership with Purple Cherry Productions, this festival brings Grammy-winning and acclaimed artists to the iconic Esplanade Stage at San Francisco's Yerba Buena Gardens.

Attendees are treated to mesmerizing performances that traverse various genres, inspiring a sense of unity and hope.

The MLK Music Festival not only offers world-class entertainment but also serves as a vibrant space for the community to come together, celebrating the diversity that enriches our society. It's a momentous event where the universal language of music echoes Dr. King's dream of a harmonious world, while reinforcing our commitment to the ongoing pursuit of civil rights and equality.
