This event was designed to help heal the hearts of children who have experienced wildfires directly or indirectly. Starting with the Children's Day opening declaration, the event featured a variety of programs, including Viking rides, air bounce experiences, food booths, and children's talent shows, creating a space where both children and local residents could enjoy themselves.

In particular, unlike previous years, this year's event included a fundraising campaign for children in wildfire-affected areas. It became a time for sharing the pain within the community, as not only children but also parents who attended the event participated in acts of giving.

In addition, to ensure the safe operation of the event without accidents, Yeongyang County, Yeongyang Police Station, and Yeongyang Fire Station, along with other relevant organizations, established and implemented a safety management plan, prioritizing the safe management of the festival site.

Governor Odokchang said, "Although our region is struggling due to wildfires, I hope that at least on Children's Day, our children can dream freely and enjoy themselves to the fullest."

On Children's Day, the Yeongyang Companion Bus provided free rides on all routes for elementary and middle school children using the bus.
