Surrey Fusion Festival will return July 18-19 with a soccer theme for 2026.

Admission is free at the annual multicultural festival, held at Holland Park.

Headliners this year are 54-40 and Kulwinder Billa, event planners announced Thursday, June 4.

The “One World, One Game” theme coincides with FIFA World Cup men’s soccer tournament, which starts Thursday, June 11 and continues until Sunday, July 19, the final day of Surrey Fusion Festival.

Presented by Coast Capital, the festival features more than 50 cultural pavilions showcasing food, music and traditions from around the world.

This year, other musical acts on eight stages include the twin sisters of Fionn pop-rock band, The Folk Turbanators (a Punjabi-Canadian group known for their high-energy performances) and more.

The festival also features a Family Zone, Indigenous Village, marketplace, dance battles and more. The Cultural Cooking Arena will host a youth cooking competition on Saturday and live demonstrations on Sunday.

“Surrey Fusion Festival is a highlight of our summer calendar and a wonderful opportunity for residents and visitors to come together in celebration of Surrey’s diversity,” Mayor Brenda Locke trumpeted in a news release.

“With this year’s theme, ‘One World, One Game,’ we’re celebrating the international spirit that the tournament brings, while highlighting the cultures that make our city so vibrant. I encourage everyone to join us at Holland Park for a welcoming weekend full of music, food, and cultural experiences the whole family can enjoy.

“This event would not be possible without the support of our presenting sponsor, Coast Capital, and I sincerely thank them for their continuous support for the past 19 years,” Locke added.
