Kenyatta University's 33rd Culture Week Festival is happening after all.

The festival will run from Friday 21 to Thursday 27 November 2026, according to KU's own events listing.

It was due to run from 24 to 30 October. That date came and went with no festival, and KU's Culture Week site now states plainly that the festival was postponed and a new date would be announced.

That new date is now set, and registration is still open.

The dates line up with KU's published first-semester calendar, which already lists Culture Week Festivals for 21 to 27 November.

Culture Week is KU's biggest student festival of the year — a full week of performances, exhibitions, food and cultural showcases from across the country and beyond.

It lands in a packed fortnight for KU students. The fee payments deadline is Friday 13 November, unit registration closes Friday 20 November, and the 60th graduation ceremony follows on Friday 11 December.
