2026 Cultural Heritage Moonlight Festival

A two-night traditional-culture festival at Uam Historic Park on October 10–11, with performances, hands-on programs and nighttime heritage interpretation. The official Daejeon Culture and Arts Foundation notice lists reservation-based tea sessions at 18:00 and 21:00 and docent tours at 18:00, 19:00, 20:00 and 21:00 on both days. The stored event time range uses the earliest and latest confirmed reservation sessions; it is not a claim that the entire site closes at 21:30.

Booking / entry conditions: Checked against sources
The official notice provides advance-reservation links for the Moonlight Tea Session and the docent tour and says registration can be made without membership. Live remaining capacity was not tested, so a link existing does not mean seats are available.

Why it matters now

This is a distinctive this-weekend option in eastern Daejeon: it turns a durable heritage site into an evening destination and gives visitors concrete bookable programs rather than only a general festival listing.

A historic park in Gayang-dong centered on sites associated with Joseon scholar Song Si-yeol, including Namganjeongsa, a pond garden, exhibition spaces and evening walking areas.
