Seogwipo Chilsimni Festival

About the festival

The Seogwipo Chilsipri Festival is Seogwipo's signature festival, bringing together local arts and culture and citizen participation programs against the backdrop of Seogwipo's old downtown and the sea. It is usually held around the Cheonjiyeon Falls parking lot and Seogwipo's old downtown (former urban area), and festive atmosphere is added by a street parade that turns the whole street into a stage, performances and busking across many genres, stages featuring local artists, and food and flea markets. In particular, the parade, in which citizens and groups take part together, is the core program showing Seogwipo's identity and vitality, and visitors can enjoy sights and activities at the same time while walking around the old downtown during the festival. It is a lively festival where past, present, and future meet and citizens and audiences become one. At the Seogwipo Chilsipri Festival, where nature, culture, and people come together, you can create special memories.
