Jinjuseong Fortress and Namgang River area, Jinju

Jinju Namgang Yudeung Festival 2026

The 2026 Jinju Namgang Yudeung Festival runs 3–18 October across Jinju Fortress, the Namgang River and nearby districts. No official attendance total was confirmed, so scale is not estimated numerically. Lanterns are lit daily 18:00–24:00; bridges and booths operate 13:00–23:00. The bridge costs KRW 2,000 one-way or KRW 6,000 for an all-day pass. Remaining headline events are fireworks on 9 October at 20:00 and a drone show on 10 October at 20:00. For 17 October, the festival portal lists drones at 19:50 and fireworks at 20:00, while Jinju City lists both at 20:00; recheck the day-of notice. Naver Festival Info, updated 8 October, shows 23 ratings and three written reviews, with mixed comments ranging from family enjoyment to concerns about queues and parking. This is a small, self-selected user sample, not official attendance or a safety assessment.
