South Korean municipalities are hosting National Heritage Night festivals to showcase regional history and cultural assets.

In September, Seocheon-gun scheduled the ‘2026 Seocheon National Heritage Night’ at Hansan-eupseong Fortress and Hansan Market. The event, themed ‘The Lord of Hansan, A Noisy Secret Mission,’ included Joseon-era processions, traditional weapon experiences, and a night market featuring regional specialties.

Following this, Jeonju City announced its ‘2026 Second Half Jeonju National Heritage Night’ for early October. Themed ‘Thousand-Year Ancient City Jeonju, A Night Walk Through History,’ the festival focuses on heritage from the Later Baekje period through the Joseon Dynasty. Planned activities include night walks and stays at locations such as Jeonju Hanok Village and Gyeonggijeon Shrine, featuring programs like the ‘Thousand-Year March of National Heritage’ and a ‘National Heritage Olympics’ at Jeolla Gamyeong.
