The Seoul International Fireworks Festival stands as one of Korea's most awe-inspiring annual gatherings.

 

Held each October at Yeouido Hangang Park, this event promises a breathtaking showcase of fireworks that captivates attendees.

 

Drawing in an enormous audience of approximately one million individuals to Yeouido Park and an even greater number to the neighboring districts, the festival's popularity necessitates the temporary closure of roads and sidewalks by local authorities due to the immense turnout.

Some tips!

 

1. Plan to arrive early to secure a prime viewing spot, as the park tends to become quite crowded. Consider bringing a picnic mat or a chair for added comfort.

 

2. Opt for public transportation to avoid potential traffic congestion. The nearest subway station is Yeouinaru Station on line 5, although it may skip the station if it's too crowded. Alternatively, you can take a bus or taxi to nearby areas and walk to the park.

 

3. Explore different vantage points to enjoy the fireworks from various angles. You can also savor the display from a Han River cruise, a nearby hotel, or other scenic spots along the river, such as the Ichon area.

 

4. Be prepared for the weather by dressing warmly and bringing an umbrella. October can be chilly and rainy, so it's wise to be ready for changing conditions.

 

5. Prioritize safety and fun. Adhere to safety guidelines and show consideration for fellow visitors by refraining from bringing fireworks or flammable items to the park.

The event organizers, Hwanwha, suggest that Ichon Han River Park on the river's north side, Seonyudo Park, and the N Seoul Tower observatory are some of the best spots to catch the dazzling show.

 

"The event's finale will be adorned by the Korean team (Hanwha).

 

This year, under the theme 'Into the Moonlight,' Hanwha presents a fireworks show inspired by 'light' with a message of hope.
