Looking for the perfect summer getaway? Head to Yeongdeok!

This summer, Yeongdeok is hosting a special festival where the whole family can cool off and have fun.

The 2024 Yeongdeok Golden Sweetfish Festival will take place over three days, from August 2nd (Friday) to August 4th (Sunday), along the clear and pristine Osipcheon River in Yeongdeok. It's the perfect summer water festival for the whole family!

As the name suggests, the 'Yeongdeok Golden Sweetfish Festival' is famous for its sweetfish catching experience in the clear valley.

The 'Bare-Handed Sweetfish Catching Experience' is a huge hit every year, thrilling children and adults alike! It's a unique opportunity to experience nature, making it an educational and exciting time for kids.

The moment you jump into the water to catch sweetfish, you'll feel like a kid again!

Besides bare-hand fishing, the festival offers various water activities for families to enjoy together.

There are safe water play zones for toddlers and elementary school children. Thanks to the refreshing waters of Osipcheon River, where the valley meets the river, everyone can cool off from the summer heat.

In the evening, enjoy the atmospheric busking performances. Don't miss the romantic experience of spending a summer night with music and a cool river breeze.

The Yeongdeok Golden Sweetfish Festival is a truly local experience that utilizes Yeongdeok's natural environment, traditions, and regional resources.

The Yeongdeok Culture & Tourism Foundation is at the heart of this festival, preparing even more enriching programs each year.

We invite both Yeongdeok residents and tourists to join us, hoping that this festival will be filled with joyful memories for everyone.
