The ‘Gwangju Seochang Silver Grass Festival,’ a representative autumn festival in Seo-gu, Gwangju, is drawing citizens and tourists with a spectacular scene on the day before its opening, the 17th.


The Seochang Silver Grass Festival has been recognized as a national festival, having won the Grand Prize in the Content category at the Korea Festival Contents Awards for two consecutive years in 2022 and 2023.


Additionally, last year, 100,000 tourists visited the festival site, establishing it as a flagship festival of Gwangju.



The Seochang Silver Grass Festival will be held from the 17th to the 20th along a 4 km section from Geukrakgyo to Seochanggyo at the Yeongsan Riverside Waterfront Park. Although nationwide rain is forecast on the opening day, the 17th, it is expected that it will not deter visitors from coming.
