Three festival days versus one tour day
Pohang City's official tourism website lists the 2026 Pohang International Fire & Light Festival for Thursday 19 to Saturday 21 November. Korea Tourism Organization's Travel Month listing separately describes the ‘Pohang Fireworks Festival × Coastal Tourism Tour’ on Saturday 21 November only. The tour date is not the full festival duration; the listing does not mean the package is required to attend the festival.
Planning a seaside evening
The dates offer a chance to experience Pohang's coastline and night-time festival atmosphere. Programme times, specific venues, traffic restrictions and extra transport may change. Check the city tourism website close to your visit and plan a return journey after the evening events.
Before booking the 21 November tour
The KTO listing provides the date and contact number 1544-1026. It does not verify live seats, final price, departure and meeting points, included meals or transport, or refund conditions. Confirm all of these with the seller or operator. Weather may affect outdoor and marine activities.
Check the festival schedule and any package booking separately before travelling.
