About

The 2026 Yeongju Apple Festival is an autumn festival where visitors can enjoy top-quality Yeongju apples, grown in Yeongju's clean natural environment, with all five senses. This year, the festival brings the taste and charm of Yeongju apples to both the growing region and the city. It runs October 30 to November 1 around Miro Park in Buseok-myeon, and November 13 to 15 at Cheonggye Plaza in Seoul. Thanks to large daily temperature swings and plenty of sunshine, Yeongju apples are known for their high sweetness and crisp texture. The festival features various hands-on programs, displays of different apple varieties, and an apple market, along with tastings and cultural performances. Visitors can also enjoy the autumn scenery together with Buseoksa Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With fresh produce straight from the farms plus lively performances and events, it is a harvest celebration that creates fun memories for all ages. It is a great chance to experience top-quality Yeongju apples and plenty of activities with all five senses, not only amid Yeongju's beautiful autumn scenery but also in the heart of Seoul.
