You’re in for a magical experience – The 2016 Seoul International Fireworks Festival
From October 7th to 8th, experience a thrilling showcase of fireworks in the city. At the Yeouido Han River Park (in front of building 63), join us for a full day of family-friendly festivities and the 2016 Seoul International Fireworks Festival.
During the day, the Fireworks Village will be bustling with performances and activities. For two evenings of eye-candy, the Seoul International Fireworks festival will entertain those of all ages. Spain and Japan will also showcase their beautiful fireworks display. The fun doesn’t end there! Following the magical fireworks, there will be an after party with a DJ concert on location. Finishing off on a positive note, we ask that you join Hanhwa’s ‘Clean Campaign’ and help pick up litter around you and leave the Han River park in its initial state.
Tip: Be sure to wear long sleeves in case of mosquitoes, and prepare your food in advance, as it will be quite dark in the evening. For comfort, bring along a picnic blanket or mat to relax and enjoy the show.
