Seoul Lantern Festival 2026

November 01, 2026


Two weeks of illuminated lantern sculptures lining the Cheonggyecheon stream through central Seoul. Each year a different theme shapes the installations — past editions have featured Korean folk tales, zodiac animals, and world cultural heritage sites. Free to walk, best visited after 7 PM when the stream reflections double the effect. The Jongno section near Gwangtong Bridge is the most photographed stretch.
