2026 Incheon Island Day Festa Schedule, Experiences, and Local Product Market – Before Visiting Sangsang Platform with Kids
It’s the day when stories from islands across the sea
come to the city 🏝️
The 2nd Incheon Island Day Festa will be held
this week on Saturday, October 10
from 10:00 to 17:00
at the Sangsang Platform Wave Hall in Incheon.
The subtitle is ‘Incheon Island Welcome’ (인천섬 어서오섬).
I’ve organized the details from Incheon City’s news (September 22),
press release (October 1),
and the official website.
🎪 What Kind of Event Is This?
This is a participatory festival
held in the city to share the charm and value
of 197 islands in Incheon with citizens.
This year’s slogan is
’Islands of Incheon: a place of rest for citizens,
a continuing home for residents.’
At the venue, you’ll find the
Incheon Island Promotion Lounge
and a photo exhibition featuring island landscapes
captured by citizens.
Sangsang Platform is a complex cultural and tourism facility
converted from a 270m-long grain warehouse built in 1978.
According to the city press release,
the Wave Hall is an indoor space on the first floor.
✨ What’s Happening When?
It’s a one-day event.
I’ve gathered the schedule from the official website
and the Incheon Island Development Support Center notice.

The celebration show will feature singer Lee Do-jin

The meeting and forum are opportunities for island residents and experts

If you’re visiting with kids, focus on the first-floor booths

The website gave the programs
fun island-themed names.
