2026 Gunwi BBQ Festival Dates, Zones & Directions – Self-Grill Barbecue at Samgukyusa Theme Park with Kids
In late October, as autumn deepens,
a barbecue festival comes to
Samgukyusa Theme Park in Gunwi 🍖
The 2026 Gunwi BBQ Festival (군위 바베큐 축제)
runs for two days, October 31 (Sat) to November 1 (Sun),
across all of Samgukyusa Theme Park.
This guide is based on the Gunwi-gun press release (September 14)
and the theme park’s notice (October 9).

🎪 About the Festival
The slogan announced by Gunwi-gun is
’Meat is good, Gunwi’ (고기 좋다 군위).
The theme park’s notice says
’Grill Gunwi meat! Enjoy it together!’
Along with self-grill hanwoo beef and pork,
Gunwi’s premium local meat,
there will be barbecue from Korea and abroad, local food,
an opening show and a parade,
plus hands-on activities and a flea market.
Gunwi-gun expects
about 10,000 visitors.
The festival name appears as ‘바베큐’ in the county press release
and ‘바비큐’ in the theme park notice — both mean barbecue.
