LetsRun Park Busan-Gyeongnam Wraps Up Water Festival ... Over 25,000 Visitors

LetsRun Park Busan-Gyeongnam concluded the 'Thumbs Up Water Festival,' held every weekend for the past two months, on the 27th.

The Water Festival is an urban summer retreat created by installing large pools and air slides, among other water play facilities, on the vast grounds of the racecourse park, allowing visitors to enjoy water activities at an affordable price.

The Water Festival began gaining popularity for its cost-effectiveness when about 4,000 people visited during the first weekend after opening. Despite adverse weather conditions such as typhoons and heavy rain throughout this summer, more than 25,000 local residents visited to enjoy the water activities.

LetsRun Park operated three filters per water pool at all times and replaced the water weekly to ensure thorough water quality inspection for a safe and pleasant water park experience.

Additionally, a systematic emergency rescue system was established, and safety management personnel were deployed, allowing the Water Festival to conclude safely without any accidents.

Song Daeyoung, head of the Busan-Gyeongnam region, said, “Despite consecutive weather anomalies such as heavy rain and heatwaves this summer, we are grateful that many people visited LetsRun Park and enjoyed the festival safely and orderly. We will repay the local community next year with diverse and enjoyable projects.”
