Created by NS Home Shopping and Iksan City, this festa celebrates Korean gastronomy in all its richness. Korea's largest culinary competition showcases innovative chefs whose creative recipes transform local ingredients into culinary masterpieces. A "gourmet tour" lets visitors observe high-tech food production processes live at Harim First Kitchen. Renowned chefs lead cooking demonstrations, while interactive events and cultural performances round out the three-day program.

🎟️ How to bookOfficial event site

  1. 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. 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. 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. 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.
