Pohang is gearing up for two major fireworks events in the autumn of 2026, generating significant anticipation. These include the Pohang International Light Festival, held around Yeongildae Beach, and the 'Pohang Nak Hwa Eui Bam' (Night of Falling Flowers) at Pohang Canal. These festivals offer more than just fireworks, combining sea views, nightscapes, music, drone shows, and traditional fire displays, promising a special experience for autumn visitors.
The Pohang International Light Festival is scheduled from November 19th to 21st at Yeongildae Beach, with the international fireworks show specifically set for Saturday, November 21st. This festival integrates 'light' and 'fire,' symbolizing Pohang as a global steel city, and features diverse content such as drone shows and light art. Concurrently, the '2026 Pohang Nak Hwa Eui Bam' will take place on October 9th, 10th, and 17th at the Pohang Canal Flowertree Plaza, blending traditional string fire play with modern night scenery. To manage crowds, a pre-reservation system will be implemented, and safety measures will be enhanced.
Bloggers highlight that the Pohang International Light Festival is a comprehensive event, not merely a fireworks display, incorporating drone shows and light art. The large-scale fireworks show at Yeongildae Beach is a much-anticipated highlight. The 'Pohang Nak Hwa Eui Bam' is noted for its impressive spectacle of charcoal embers falling over the canal waters at night. Visitors are advised to utilize the pre-reservation system and adhere to safety guidelines for a more enjoyable experience.
