Seoul Illustration Fair V.22 is scheduled to bring illustrators and visitors together at COEX over the December holiday. Visit Seoul, the city's tourism information site, lists Thursday, December 24 through Sunday, December 27, 2026 at COEX Hall C, 513 Yeongdong-daero, Gangnam-gu. Daily opening hours are 10:00–18:00, with last admission at 17:00, one hour before closing. The four-day schedule should not be mistaken for all-day opening.
The fair features illustrator-run booths and opportunities to discover art, designs and creative merchandise. The Visit Seoul description says the series generally draws around 1,000 booths and more than 800 artists, but these are descriptive figures, not a verified final V.22 exhibitor count. It identifies a themed section titled 'Density of the Heart: Sprouting Life'. Browse for styles you like and speak with artists when possible. Purchases from individual booths are separate from entry tickets.
The October 7 city listing posted KRW 11,000 for adults and KRW 9,000 for teenagers, alongside a limited early-bird offer. These are prices shown when that page was prepared, not guaranteed checkout prices in December. Confirm the price, any age-based rules, early-bird inventory and final booking conditions at the linked official ticket seller. We could not establish whether children enter free or whether same-day tickets and re-entry are offered.
The official directions identify Samsung Station Exit 6 on Subway Line 2 (about 573 m away) and Bongeunsa Station Exit 7 on Line 9 (about 333 m away). COEX is large, so follow the wayfinding specifically to Hall C. The visitor page also notes accessible toilets, elevators and disabled parking. Enquiries: +82-2-2602-8602 or +82-2-6280-8604.
