When night falls in Gangneung, this festival makes the city shine.
The Gangneung Cultural Heritage Night Trip is a nighttime festival where you can enjoy the cultural heritage of Gangneung.
Originally an event that was held every fall, this year’s Cultural Heritage Night Trip will be held from July 8 to 10, together with the World Choir Games 2023.
This event celebrates the significance and value of cultural heritage in Gangneung and offers a place to experience the city’s history and culture.
There are eight programs in total,
the most notable of which is the Gangneung Local Government Magistrate’s Inauguration Parade.
The parade is recreated from the Joseon-era painting of the procession,
which depicts a scene where the people of Gangneung come out to the streets to welcome their new magistrate.
Another notable event is the drone light show, wherein 600 drones paint pictures of Gangneung’s Tangible and Intangible Cultural Heritages in the night sky.
