The 2026 Seoul Safety Festival is scheduled to take place for three days, from September 17 to 19, at Yeouido Park's Culture Square. Celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, the festival offers approximately 70 free safety experience programs across six categories, including fire, disaster, and traffic safety, drawing significant interest from children and families.
The event runs daily from 10 AM to 5 PM, with 75 organizations participating to make it the largest safety culture festival in Korea. Key programs include experiential booths in fire safety, disaster safety, daily life safety, traffic safety, physical and mental health, and community engagement. Additionally, citizen participation programs such as 'K-Fire Disaster Hunters,' 'Safe Holiday Festival,' and 'Safety Companion 119KM Running Challenge' are planned.
Bloggers emphasize that hands-on experiential learning is far more effective for children than simply listening to explanations. They suggest pre-selecting programs of interest, especially for weekend visits when crowds are expected. The festival also features attractions like fire truck displays and a 119 Safety Gallery, making it a recommended destination for family outings.
