Korea Events & Festivals 2026: What’s On Now

Korea has a lot going on, but event information is often spread across Instagram, Korean booking sites, pop-up pages, and temporary announcements.

We pull together the details that are actually useful before you go — when it is, where it is, whether you need a reservation, and anything you should know in advance.

No digging through five different Korean pages just to find the opening hours.

Before you go: Event schedules, reservations, and weather plans can change. Check the event guide and the organizer’s latest notice again on the day you visit.
