It’s autumn, when jujubes ripen to a deep red 🍂
The 15th Gyeongsan Jujube Festival & Agricultural Products Fair
(경산대추축제&농산물한마당) runs
from October 16 (Fri) to 18 (Sun)
at Onmaru Plaza in Gyeongsan Sports Park.
This year’s theme is
Royal Tribute Gyeongsan Jujube Gourmet Festa.
Admission is free,
and it’s open 11:00–20:30 on all three days.
I’ve summarized the Gyeongsan Culture & Tourism Foundation’s festival guide,
plus its day-by-day schedule and venue map.

Gyeongsan grows about 30% of
all the jujubes produced in Korea.
At the festival, Gyeongsan jujubes and farm produce are on sale,
with tastings of processed jujube products and other foods,
plus hands-on booths and performances.
The venue map shows
the jujube food area split into five zones.
| Zone | What’s There |
|---|---|
| Chomisang (초미상) | Fresh jujube zone |
| Imisang (이미상) | Processed jujube products zone |
| Surasang (수라상) | Jujube dishes zone |
| Saecham Madang (새참마당) | Jujube snacks zone |
| Dagwasang (다과상) | Jujube drinks & desserts zone |
The map also shows a farm produce sales area,
experience, exhibition and sales booths,
and rest and eating areas.
