At the Asia Culture Center in Gwangju, admission varies across spaces. The Asia Culture Museum in the Culture Information Center is free, as is the children's library. But the Culture Creation Center's six multi-exhibition halls set prices for each exhibition, and theater tickets vary by performance. The Children's Experience Hall costs ₩5,000 for children aged four to under fourteen or ₩3,000 for adults, with free entry for eligible infants under 48 months upon proof. General indoor hours are 10:00–18:00, while the Culture Information and Culture Creation centers extend to 20:00 on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Outdoor spaces operate 06:00–22:00; the center closes on Mondays and 1 January. The free toddler playground is temporarily closed for construction from 6 October 2026 despite its general listing. Particular events and reading rooms have separate schedules, so check the specific venue.
