2026 Gyeongbokgung Starlight Tour (Autumn)

A ticketed royal-palace evening tour at Gyeongbokgung, September 2–October 24, 2026, usually Wednesday–Sunday, excluding September 30–October 4. Two daily sessions: 18:20–20:10 and 19:30–21:20 (approximately 110 minutes). KRW 60,000 per person, 38 guests per session, ages 7+ (born in 2019 or earlier); minors must accompany a guardian. The August ticket lottery is over; public sales for residual seats began August 28, but live availability was not checked. October 21–24 is designated for overseas guests with a separate Creatrip booking route. This is not ordinary walk-in palace entry.

Why it matters now

Useful for planning the October 10–11 weekend or later October, but book first: there is no verified walk-in admission or live seat inventory. Foreign-visitor dates October 21–24 use a different booking route.
