Seogwipo Chilsimni Festival

The Seogwipo Chilsimni Festival is Seogwipo's signature festival, bringing together local culture, arts, and citizen participation programs against the backdrop of the city's old downtown and the sea. It's usually held around the Cheonjiyeon Falls parking lot and the old town area of Seogwipo. The festival atmosphere is enriched by a street parade that turns the whole street into a stage, performances and busking of various genres, stages featuring local artists, and food and flea market stalls. The parade in particular is the festival's centerpiece, with citizens and groups joining together to show off Seogwipo's identity and energy — as you walk through the old downtown during the festival, you can experience both sights and fun activities at once. This festival is a stage where past, present, and future meet, and a lively celebration where citizens and visitors become one. At the Seogwipo Chilsimni Festival, where nature, culture, and people come together, you can create special memories.
