The 2026 edition was postponed from its usual late-spring slot. The highlight is the international fireworks show on Saturday 21 November, when teams from Korea, Japan and France fire over Yeongildae Bay; the earlier evenings carry a night carnival parade and media facade programmes. Entry is free.
