This year's fireworks festival will feature a variety of performances and hands-on programs. The opening ceremony is scheduled for 7:00 p.m., followed by the fireworks show and the Light Garden at 7:35 p.m.

Above all, Paju City is prioritizing citizen safety this year by deploying safety personnel throughout the venue. On the day of the event, partial traffic control will be implemented around the festival site from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. In particular, left turns will be completely prohibited for regular vehicles at the Waseok Rotary and Unjeong Lake Intersection, with only straight-ahead movement allowed. In addition, right turns will also be restricted in certain sections.

Traffic police and the Model Drivers' Association will be deployed together to manage traffic flexibly according to congestion levels. Detour routes will be promptly guided through on-site signage and announcements. Paju City strongly encourages the use of public transportation to reduce traffic congestion. As nearby parking lots are expected to fill up early, drivers using private vehicles are asked to follow detour routes according to the traffic controls.

Yu Choja, Head of the Culture and Arts Division, stated, "We are preparing with the utmost priority on citizen safety," and added, "We ask for your active cooperation with on-site staff, even if it causes some inconvenience." Further details can be found on the Paju City Hall website or blog.
