Seoul Gangseo-gu (Mayor Kim Tae-woo) will hold the ‘2023 Ujangsan Greenery Festival’ at Ujangsan Soccer Field on the 20th from 2 PM to 9 PM under the theme of ‘Children and Picnic,’ showcasing the charm of Gangseo filled with culture and arts.

Except during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ujangsan Greenery Festival has been held every spring and this year it has transformed into a festival where visitors can relax on picnic mats, participate in activities across all generations, and enjoy diverse performances and films.

The festival is divided into three parts: ▲Part 1 Experience Programs and Small Performances ▲Part 2 Picnic Mat Concert ▲Part 3 Picnic Mat Film Festival.

In Part 1, 12 ‘Children’s Experience’ programs such as music makers, robots, and balloon art, and 4 ‘Adult Experience Programs’ including tarot card reading, nail art, and caricature drawing will be held in the ‘Family Zone’ and ‘Emotional Zone’ respectively. Various side events like air bounces, balloon popping, and taking life-cut photo strips will also be available.

Additionally, performances such as busking by the emotional and unique band Grooveus, a musical gala show by the Gangseo-gu Public Theater Company ‘Bisang,’ and an extreme balloon show will captivate visitors’ eyes and ears. Interactive games like OX quizzes and balance games held intermittently during performances will add to the fun.

Part 2 begins with an opening ceremony at 6 PM, followed by the ‘Greenery Concert.’ Indie band ‘Bunrisugeo,’ who received great responses from numerous audiences during their busking performance last year at Magok Culture Street, will take the stage. Bunrisugeo is expected to captivate the audience again with their sharp ad-libs and soulful singing skills at this festival.

In Part 3, the picnic mat film festival will screen Aladdin, the musical film adaptation of the Disney animation that surpassed 10 million viewers, providing fun memories for family audiences along with the cool night breeze.

During the festival, a food truck zone will operate, offering a variety of foods to enjoy.

Mayor Kim Tae-woo said, “The Greenery Festival is a celebration to fully enjoy the scent of spring at the end of May,” adding, “I hope this year’s Ujangsan Greenery Festival, prepared with various sights and activities, becomes a place where families can laugh and enjoy together.”
