🚇 Getting There & Parking
The press release notes that
roads and parking lots near the venue are narrow.
They ask visitors to use Gosaek Station or take the bus.
The parking section on the festival portal
also says ‘none’.
At the same location, in front of Gosaek Station Exit 1,
the city popup ‘Gosaek Wellness Station’
will be open until the 11th from 09:00 to 19:00.
You can get walking and running challenge stamps there.
👨👩👧 If You’re Bringing Kids
Beeswax candle making and
decorating pens with 3D printer beads
are great hands-on activities to do with children.
The Gosaek Market is open twice, in the morning and afternoon.
Since used toys and books are among the items for sale,
it’s a fun place to browse with kids.
If you go in the morning, you can also
watch the Golden Bell quiz on stage together.
On the previous day, the 10th,
there will be a Lunchbox Market at Tapdong Citizen Farm in Gwonseon-gu.
