The October 23–24, 2026 edition of the Jeonju Makgeolli Festival is over. This article looks back at its official advance announcements; it is not a guide to an event happening today.
Jeonju's neighborhood food culture together
In an October 7 press release, Jeonju City announced the festival for 5–10 p.m. on October 23 and 24 at Jeonju Vision University's main sports field. The plan brought together 19 businesses: seven from the Samcheondong makgeolli alley, four local breweries and eight food businesses, alongside performances and experiences.
What the past visitor information said
The city's saved tourism description distinguished free general entry from paid food and drinks. Those terms applied to that past edition. Stall prices, what was actually sold, and conditions for a possible future festival have not been independently verified.
Beyond the festival
The event offers a window into Jeonju's food culture. To visit Samcheondong makgeolli alley or a particular restaurant now, independently check the establishment's present opening hours, prices and booking rules. Do not assume another festival date until organizers publish it.
