Cheongwon Life Festival
청원생명축제
Since 2008, this festival has celebrated sustainable agriculture and the premium farm products of the Cheongwon region. It brings farmers and consumers together in a direct exchange space, showcasing organic farming practices and locally grown goods. The festival features themed exhibitions, cultural performances, and participatory activities for all ages: sweet potato harvesting, traditional farming workshops, and diverse family programs. Through these experiences, visitors gain insight into the importance of healthy food, the environmental value of agriculture, and rural culture. The event strengthens local economy and rural development while raising awareness about sustainable farming practices.

🎟️ 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.

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.
