If you missed Fremont’s first Halal Fest, held on July 8th-9th, we’ve got the scoop on how incredible both the event and the turnout were. At the two-day event, almost 10,000 people attended. Fremont’s Halal Fest 2017 did a fantastic job of entertaining and educating both adults and children about Halal culture. Check out this video clip of the event:
In Arabic, “Halal” means “permissible,” another way to interpret what Muslims are allowed to eat, much like the Jewish religion and their kosher food diet. Halal food follows an Arabic Muslim diet, and does not permit alcohol or pork.
Many people came to purchase some of the cultural items, like shirts and dresses. However, the primary goal of most of the attendees was to sample various dishes of halal food from around the world.
The goal of Halal Fest 2017 was to both educate and share the local Muslim culture and food found in the Bay Area community. With so many in attendance, the success of the Halal Festival’s attraction is impressive, and promises to make the event a popular one for years to come.

Let’s be honest: there was a time when great content and a catchy title were enough to pull in a crowd. But today, events have become a go-to marketing play, and now, everyone’s in the game.
