Changnyeong Nakdonggang Canola Flower Festival, Rescheduled to April 4-7

Early Blooming Period... Scheduled to Open One Week Earlier

Changnyeong-gun, Gyeongnam Province announced on the 27th that the 19th Changnyeong Nakdong River Canola Flower Festival will be held from April 4th.

Changnyeong-gun had originally planned to hold the Changnyeong Nakdong River Canola Flower Festival from April 11th at Namji Sports Park in Namji-eup, Changnyeong-gun, but due to frequent rainfall in winter and higher-than-average temperatures, the canola flowering period is expected to be earlier than usual, so the festival period was changed to April 4th to 7th.

A county official said, “At the Changnyeong Nakdong River Canola Flower Festival Committee held in February, it was decided to change the festival period to ensure a smooth event due to the earlier flowering caused by this winter's higher-than-average temperatures,” adding, “We hope you enjoy spring at the Changnyeong Nakdong River Canola Flower Festival, where yellow canola flowers are in full bloom.”
