The Daegu Chimac Festival (DCF) is a prominent summer event in Korea, set to take place at Duryu Park from July 2 to 6. Under the theme “Chimac Sensation,” this festival is a hot spot for locals and tourists to enjoy and beat the summer heat through various new activities.
Last year’s DCF, held under the slogan “It’s Summer! Let’s CHIMAC,” drew over 1 million visitors with 86 featured companies and 254 booths. This year, the event aims to enhance its global visibility with significant changes in content and layout, featuring three Big Spots and four Theme Streets.
The festival’s first Big Spot, 2.28 Freedom Square, will host an engaging concert stage with EDM music and water-based special effects. Spectators can enjoy the stage’s center placement for better visibility, supported by LED screens and interactive elements like water cannons and standing zones.
Returning is the popular Premium Reservation Zone, offering 4,880 seats with chicken-and-beer sets and souvenirs per table. Reservations for this exclusive area will open on June 17 at Ticketlink.
The second Big Spot, Kolon Outdoor Concert Hall, boasts a large dome resembling a fried egg, providing shelter and housing various activities and themed spots. The third Big Spot, Duryu Park Parking Lot 2, will offer a unique blood horror concept, catering to visitors of all ages.
Entertainment at the festival includes performances by Korean singers and DJs at 2.28 Freedom Square and Kolon Outdoor Concert Hall. Operational enhancements, such as 24,000 eco-friendly reusable cups, aim to maintain a sustainable event.
DCF has collaborated with artist KKEKK to design promotional materials and merchandise, adding a unique touch to the festival experience. Tour packages and promotional efforts targeting foreign tourists are in place to attract a diverse audience.
The Global Zone will cater to foreign visitors, featuring a new Global Information Center to assist non-Korean speakers. Park Gi-hwan, head of DMC’s Economic Affairs Division, emphasized the festival’s commitment to innovation and trend reflection to ensure an enjoyable and memorable experience for all attendees.
With a fresh layout and exciting content, this year’s Daegu Chimac Festival promises a vibrant celebration of Korean culture and summer festivities, inviting everyone to savor the unique blend of chimac and entertainment in the heart of Daegu.
