Official information

Why it matters now

The October 3–5, 2026 AniToy Festival is using the museum grounds as a combined animation, character, toy and family-program venue. A separate Kids Leisure Challenge is also scheduled here on October 4–5, making the campus unusually active this weekend.

Why go

It is one of the clearest places in Korea to encounter animation as both cultural history and an interactive visitor experience. The adjacent Toy Robot Museum and creative-industry facilities make the site more useful than a single-gallery stop.

The festival runs October 3–5, 2026 around the Chuncheon Animation Museum, with the official site listing daily festival hours of 11:00–17:00. A September 28 official notice offers a festival-period combined ticket for the Animation Museum and Toy Robot Museum at a flat KRW 5,000 for October 3–5; that notice describes the museum combination ticket and should not be read as proof that every outdoor festival area requires the same ticket. Selected performances and film screenings use advance registration and can close when capacity is reached: October 3 includes a Choi Hyun-woo magic show at 14:20 and a Hello Carbot film at 16:30; October 4 lists Bebefinn concerts at 11:00 and 15:30 plus a Hello Carbot film at 16:30; October 5 lists Go Go Dino sing-along shows at 11:00 and 15:30. General festival admission rules outside the museum ticket, live remaining capacity, foreign-language support, overseas booking usability, public-transport routing and step-free circulation were not independently tested.
