Jeongnamjin Jangheung Water Festival

About the Festival

The Jeongnamjin Jangheung Water Festival is one of Korea's representative summer festivals, selected as a Cultural Tourism Designated Festival by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism for 2025. Based on clean water resources such as the clear water of Tamjingang River and Jangheung Dam Lake, all programs are linked under Jangheung's theme of "Water = Health, Healing." The diverse programs, continuing day and night, allow people of all ages to escape the midsummer heat and daily routine. Through business agreements and festival exchanges with the Thailand Songkran Festival and the Venice Carnival Organizing Committee of Italy, the Jeongnamjin Jangheung Water Festival is being fostered as a global festival, making it the best choice for a summer vacation.
