Seorifool Music Festival
서리풀뮤직페스티벌
The Seorifool Music Festival is an annual September celebration established in 2015 and now Seoul's leading cultural event in Seocho District, drawing over 1.34 million visitors. For two days, the ten-lane Banpo Avenue becomes a stage for diverse musical performances and participatory programs. This year's theme, « Seocho is the Music », features a month-long musical journey through the district culminating in the main festival. The program includes spectacular performances such as a massive asphalt drawing with 100,000 pieces of chalk, community choirs spanning generations, classical and jazz concerts, children's animated classical shows, and a K-POP night with fireworks, plus interactive booths and art installations.

🎟️ How to book — Official event site
- 1
Most regional festivals are free entry
Korean municipalities fund a huge number of free festivals (flowers, food, light shows) — free entry is the norm, not the exception, sometimes with paid stalls or activities on site.
- 2
Check the event's official site
The link sits on the event's VisitKorea page — it's the most reliable source for the program, hours, and any last-minute changes.
- 3
Book via a Korean platform if a reservation is required
When a festival has paid premium activities or an attached concert, booking usually goes through NOL or YES24 — see the matching guide on this page.
- 4
Call 1330 when in doubt
Korea's tourism hotline answers in English, Chinese and Japanese, 24/7 — handy for confirming a time or address when the official site is Korean-only.
💡 Good to know
When a price shows as "see details", the organiser simply hasn't published one in advance: in almost all of those cases entry is free and only some on-site activities are paid. Bring a little cash — many stalls don't take cards.
