Siheung Gaetgol Festival (시흥갯골축제)

About this show

The Siheung Gaetgol Festival is an eco-festival held at Siheung Gaetgol Eco Park, the only inland tidal creek in Gyeonggi-do. Surrounded by wetlands and former salt fields, the festival offers a variety of ways to relax, learn, and have fun in nature.

Other performances include Concert in Gaetgol, Salt Warehouse Puppet Theater, Forest Music Festival, and the Gaetgol Senior Runway. Visitors can also enjoy a wide range of activities, including a Fantasy Hot-Air Balloon Experience, Gaetgol Adventure, Salt Play & Barefoot Salt Trail, SEA POOL Party, Insect Exploration Experience, Gaetgol Is My Playground for the Day, Salt Farm Experience, Slow Post Office, “Walk Siheung” Walking Festival, Siheung Salt Farm Ritual, Street Arts Festival, Gaetgol National Art Competition, Gaetgol Retro Photo Studio, and the Gaetgol Stamp Rally.
