⚠️ This festival's listed dates have passed
The dates above are from the most recent official schedule. Many Korean festivals are annual events held around the same time each year, but the next date has not been officially confirmed yet — please check the official website or a Google search below before planning a trip.
Overview
Seoul Fringe Festival has been held every summer annually since 1998. The festival is open to artists of all genres, from dance to music and media art. Due to the open style and non-competitive element of the festival, artists and festival-goers alike are free to express themselves however they choose.

🇰🇷 Copy this into Naver Map or Kakao Map
Google Maps cannot give walking or transit directions inside Korea — Korean law restricts map-data export. Naver Map and Kakao Map can, but they find far more when you search in Korean. Copy and paste:
📊 How busy this area gets
Visitor-volume index for 마포구, from Korea Tourism Organization big data. 1.00 = that area's own yearly average, so this compares the area against itself — not against Seoul.
Aug — 1.06 · quietest of the months we have
The index covers the whole district, not the festival ground itself. Use it to pick a month, not a day. · Aug 1.06 / Sep 1.14
🅿️ Nearby attractions — with actual parking capacity
Most sites only say "parking available." These are official figures from the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, so you can judge before you drive.
Names and addresses here stay in Korean on purpose. Google Maps cannot give directions inside South Korea, and NAVER Map / KakaoMap find these places only under their Korean names — copy an address above and paste it straight in.
🏮 Traditional market days during the festival
Korean country markets open only on days ending in fixed digits — every 5 days. These are the actual dates they open while the festival runs, so you can add one to the same trip.
