The Incheon Tourism Organization has initiated several programs to advance regional tourism and local spending. In late August 2026, the organization launched the ‘2026 Incheon Tourism Open Innovation Idea Contest’ to solicit public proposals regarding AI-driven services, K-culture content, and the revitalization of old downtown areas. To promote local spending, Incheon Metropolitan City and the organization introduced a tourism consumption receipt event running through September 20. In partnership with the OK Cashbag platform, participants upload receipts from local merchants to the ‘Incheon e-G’ smart tourism app. The program uses AI to verify spending and offers tiered rewards, including cashbag points, coupons, and hotel stays at locations such as Inspire Resort and Harbor Park Hotel. The city intends to use the resulting consumption data to refine future tourism policies and expand its merchant network. Following the conclusion of the receipt event, the organization announced a ‘four-color healing travel’ guide for the Chuseok holiday. This guide offers diverse themes including tradition, night views, wellness, family experiences, and gastronomy. Recommended activities include traditional folk games at Wolmi Park, media art exhibitions at Ganghwa Goryeogungji, and moon-viewing events at the Ganghwa Astronomical Science Museum. Wellness options include spa facilities like Paradise City Cimer and Seokmodo Mineral Spa, while family-oriented activities feature the National Incheon Maritime Museum and the Yeongjongdo Rail Bike.
