The Gyeongpo Summer Festival is a representative festival held every summer at Gyeongpo Beach in Gangneung. In 2026, the festival took place for seven days from July 30 to August 5, offering a variety of attractions and activities, including daily performances by artists of different genres, diverse beach programs, and events. During the day, there are giant claw machines, various challenge games on the sandy beach, and a mini-game zone in the pine forest picnic area for free enjoyment. On Fridays and Saturdays, a beer garden is set up in conjunction with the Beach Beer Festival, while a water gun battle program is prepared on Sundays and Mondays. Every night, as the hot sun sets and the night breeze blows, themed artist performances and EDM parties follow. You can fully enjoy both the day and night of Gyeongpo right here at the Gyeongpo Summer Festival.
