Gyeongsan Jujube Festival & Agricultural Products Marketplace

경산 대추축제 & 농산물 한마당

The Gyeongsan Jujube Festival celebrates this prized local fruit, which accounts for approximately 30% of Korea's jujube production. Historically offered as tribute to the royal court, these jujubes are known for their sweet and tender flavor. The festival features jujube tastings and various food products, alongside diverse entertainment including a talk-concert with poet Jang Seok-joo, trot music performances, dinner shows, and traditional folk art displays. Visitors can also explore a marketplace showcasing regional agricultural specialties and local produce.

🎟️ 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.
