Check dates and participation conditions3rd Daejeon Jung-gu Book Festival 2026

The October 10–11 main edition of the 3rd Daejeon Jung-gu Book Festival is at Woorideul Park in Daeheung-dong, not the September Seonridan-gil pre-program area. Jung-gu’s official notice lists experience-program hours as 14:00–19:00 Saturday and 11:00–16:00 Sunday, with free-to-KRW 3,000 activities and a rain fallback to Jung-gu Office. Separate stage programs may use different times.

An old-downtown street area behind the former Chungnam Provincial Government building in Jung-gu, reshaped with open-style Korean walls, small public spaces, cafes and restaurants while retaining the atmosphere of central Daejeon’s historic core.
