The 2026 Songdo Beer Festival, themed 'Fantasy Land: Beer Land', is scheduled to take place from August 22nd to 30th at Songdo Moonlight Festival Park. This year, the festival has transitioned to a paid entry system to ensure a more pleasant experience, with online pre-sale tickets priced at 10,000 KRW and on-site tickets at 12,000 KRW. Children under the age of six can enter for free when accompanied by a ticket-holding adult.
The festival will operate from 4 PM to 10 PM on weekdays and 3 PM to 10 PM on weekends, with last entry at 9:30 PM daily. The event boasts a diverse lineup of artists such as YB, Forestella, 10CM, and Norazo, covering various music genres. Attendees can also enjoy a wide selection of domestic and international beer brands, craft breweries, live performances, fireworks displays, and EDM parties.
Local bloggers have shared mixed reactions regarding the new paid entry system, noting that it has helped reduce crowds but expressing disappointment over the entry fee for older children. Due to expected parking difficulties, public transportation is highly recommended. Bloggers also advise purchasing tickets online in advance to benefit from the discounted price. VIP table ticket holders receive unlimited beer.
