Autumn nights in Seoul can get quite chilly, especially after sunset.

 

Be sure to bring an extra layer, like a jacket or sweater, to keep yourself comfortable during the show.

 

A blanket is also a good idea for sitting on the grass or wrapping yourself in during the event.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Capture the Moment

Since the beauty of fireworks can be fleeting, it’s essential to bring along a camera or smartphone to capture the memories.

 

A tripod or selfie stick will help you get stable shots, and an extra battery is a must, as you might spend several hours enjoying the festival.

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Personal Hygiene Items

Pack a handkerchief or wet wipes to clean up any messes, especially if you plan to buy food from the festival’s food trucks.

 

Don’t forget a plastic bag for trash to help keep the event space clean and enjoyable for everyone.

With the fireworks festival expected to draw a massive crowd at Yeouido Hangang Park, many attendees are looking for quieter spots to enjoy the show.

 

Hanwha Corporation has shared a list of alternative viewing locations to consider

 

 

 

 

• Ichon Hangang Park : Though slightly farther from the action, this spot offers a more relaxed experience and a beautiful view of the Han River.

 

• Sayuksin Historical Park : Located in Norangjin, this elevated spot provides a scenic, distant view of the fireworks with fewer crowds.

 

• Seonyudo Park : Closer to Yeouido, this park combines the natural landscape with excellent fireworks views, offering a tranquil atmosphere.

 

• Norangjin Soccer Field : A popular choice among local residents, this spacious field allows for a picnic-style experience. Just 2 minutes from Norangjin Station, it’s convenient for those using public transportation.

 

• Norangjin Fish Market : For a more unique experience, you can watch the fireworks while enjoying fresh seafood from the market. This spot is so popular that people often pitch tents here the night before the event.
