International Street Culture Festival

K-BATTLE INTERNATIONAL STREET CULTURE FESTIVAL

Dates
20–29 November 2026
Venue
Lan Ya Mo (Thao Suranari Monument) · Nakhon Ratchasima

Korat's street culture festival — dance, music, extreme sport and wall art in one programme. Competitors enter through join.visitkorat.com.

What K-BATTLE is

K-BATTLE began in 2009 with BBOY KORAT, a local crew who ran their own contests so dancers across Isan had somewhere to meet and trade skills.

What started as a single day grew to take in the rest of street culture — beatbox, rap, DJ, cover dance, graffiti and extreme sport — and has run every year since, sixteen years and counting.

The 2026 edition is international, backed by Nakhon Ratchasima province alongside public and private partners, and runs beside K-BATX, the festival's trade exhibition and business-matching programme.

Competing and watching are different doors
