This year's festival will feature interactive programs such as "Butterfly Releasing Experience" and "Butterfly Feeding Experience," allowing visitors to directly engage with butterflies, along with a variety of other hands-on activities and performances. The festival aims to offer memorable spring experiences for visitors of all ages through participatory programs for both children and adults.

In particular, during the festival, a new multi-purpose play-and-learn space called "Nabit Park," combining ecological education and experiential entertainment, will open. Debuting after construction is completed, Nabit Park will offer interactive exhibitions themed around butterfly ecology and facilities focused on play and education for children. It will operate as a hands-on experience space where families can enjoy and connect with nature.

A Hampyeong County official stated, "The Hampyeong Butterfly Festival has been designated an honorary cultural tourism festival by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and is Hampyeong's representative festival promoting the value of nature and ecology. We hope many tourists will visit and fully enjoy the spirit of spring, where butterflies and nature come together."
