About this event
The 13th Haeundae Light Festival runs from 28 November 2026 to 10 January 2027 along Gunam-ro (Haeundae Square) and the Haeundae beachfront, hosted by Haeundae-gu Office. This edition's theme is 'Deep Dive Haeundae', an underwater journey of light with a 30-metre light tunnel and a Christmas tree forest on the square. The lights run nightly from 18:00 to 23:00, and the festival opens with a lighting ceremony on the beach at 18:00 on 28 November. Entry is free. The dates are Haeundae-gu's announced dates for the 13th edition (8 November 2026); the Korea Tourism Organization listing still shows last season's 29 November to 18 January window.
