The 14th Gunsan Time Travel Festival is currently taking place from October 2 to 5, 2026, around Gunsan Old City Hall Square and the Time Travel Village. This festival recreates the atmosphere of the 1930s, set against Gunsan's modern cultural heritage, and is attracting significant attention with its diverse programs suitable for all ages.
The festival is divided into five main zones: Keunmadang, Nolmadang, Jangmadang, Meokmadang, and Eummadang. Nolmadang specifically offers experiential programs for children, such as a forest adventure playground and craft workshops. Keunmadang hosts main performances, including the opening ceremony and time travel concerts. The lineup features artists like Lyn and H1-KEY on October 2, Shin Yea-young and At Heart on October 3, and Jung Seo-ju and Yada on October 4, promising a rich entertainment experience.
Bloggers note that the festival offers more than just performances, providing a variety of experiences including exploring modern streets, street parades, historical activities, and diverse food options. Symbolic programs like the 'Global Modern Flash Mob,' which recreates 1930s Gunsan, and the daily '3.5 Manse' event at 3:05 PM, enhance the immersive experience. For families with children, it is recommended to enjoy daytime activities and street performances, and to explore the modern cultural heritage sites scattered throughout the festival grounds for a complete time travel experience.
