Changwon Special City Celebrates Children's Day with a Grand 'Changwon Children’s Festival'

Changwon Special City in Gyeongnam will hold the "Changwon Children's Grand Festival" at 11 locations across the city, including Yongji Culture Park, to make the 101st Children's Day a special day for children and families.

This outdoor event, held for the first time in four years in line with the recovery of daily life, is highly anticipated by children and families who have been disappointed by the lack of large-scale events nearby.

Hosted by Changwon Special City, this event features a commemorative ceremony including the reading of the Children's Rights Charter and awards for exemplary children and contributors to child welfare, along with various performances and hands-on programs.
