Yeongdeungpo-gu Children's Festival Held Last Year

Yeongdeungpo-gu (District Mayor Choi Ho-kwon) announced that it will hold the 2024 Children's Day Festival on May 4th in celebration of Family Month.

The festival, held at Yeongdeungpo Park, will operate various programs that families can enjoy together under the theme "Play Well! Laugh Well! Grow Well!" including performances, experiences, games, rest areas, and a food zone, captivating both the eyes and taste buds of visitors.

First, in the performance zone, there will be b-boying and beatboxing, broadcast dance and taekwondo demonstration performances, children's musicals, and a congratulatory performance by the Yeongdeungpo-gu Children’s Choir, the district’s representative choir.

In the experience zone, 20 organizations will participate with a total of 21 experience booths. Notably, this experience zone will be linked with the 4th industrial revolution, offering VR/AR experiences, robot soccer and robot basketball, 3D pen experiences, and more to inspire children’s dreams of becoming future scientists. Additionally, there will be various craft experiences such as balloon art and eco-bag decorating, traditional folk games with parents, face painting, and a “Life Four-Cut” photo booth installed within the festival where families can capture their “life shots.”

In the play zone, air bounces, kids riders, and mini trains will be operated with professional and safety staff assigned to ensure a safe environment for children to run and play freely. A separate rest zone will also be created for families to relax comfortably.

The food zone will offer a variety of foods such as tteokbokki and fried chicken. In particular, to create a zero-waste festival, food trucks will use reusable containers, and a 500 KRW discount will be given to those who bring their own containers. However, there is a 1,000 KRW usage fee for the experience and play zones, which will be fully donated.

In case of rain on the day of the event, the festival may be fully or partially canceled or postponed. Detailed information will be provided through the “Yeongdeungpo-gu Office website” and “resident notification texts.”

Choi Ho-kwon, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo-gu, said, “In celebration of Family Month in May, we have prepared various programs for families to create wonderful memories together,” and added, “We will continue to provide opportunities for diverse experiences so that children, the future leaders, can pursue their dreams with unwavering support.”
