Now in its third year, the festival is held under the slogan "Enjoy a Happy Winter in Charming Yangpyeong." Through a wide range of 'winter experience' programs connected to local resources, the event aims to offer visitors a warm and unique winter trip even during the cold season.


The festival will feature four main themes: rural experiences, strawberry picking, starlight viewing, and sledding. Participants can explore various parts of Yangpyeong through a stamp tour that includes winter rural programs, strawberry picking, and starlight experiences under the night sky. In addition, a special photo zone capturing the winter atmosphere will be set up at the Namhangang Terrace in front of Yangpyeong County Office.


This year's special event, unlike last year's opening ceremony, will be scheduled for the middle of the festival to further enhance the festive atmosphere. Titled "The 3rd Winter in Yangpyeong: Light of Love - Connecting 2025 and 2026," the special event will take place on December 31 from noon to 6 p.m., reflecting the high number of family visitors during the year-end period. By holding the special event at the peak of the festival, organizers expect to boost momentum in the latter half and maximize promotional impact.


Yangpyeong County Governor Jeon Jinseon stated, "We expect that more tourists will visit Yangpyeong through the special event 'Winter in Yangpyeong: Light of Love,' which will be held when the festival atmosphere is at its peak. We hope this festival will make 'Winter in Yangpyeong' even more special and serve as an important milestone for Yangpyeong to establish itself as a year-round tourist destination."
