See the Daytime Shows at Yuja Theme Park

Mime, magic shows, bubble shows and street performances run at the Yuja Theme Park stage daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. You can catch the daytime shows before the evening concert starts.

If you travel with children, building the day around daytime hours is an option. A detailed show-by-show timetable was not confirmed in this research.

Ask About Transport, Parking and English Support Early

The official lineup page did not list parking or shuttle information, so this guide does not state them. Goheung is in Jeollanam-do on Korea’s south coast, and no verified route from Seoul or Incheon Airport was found. English support on site is not confirmed and may be limited.

Because concerts end after dark, plan your way back before you go. Mid-November evenings outdoors can be cold, so bring a warm layer. If you need help during your trip, the Korea Travel Helpline 1330 offers support in Korean and English.

6. Where to Eat & Stay Near Goheung

Plan Your Meals Before You Go

No Goheung restaurant names were confirmed in this research, so this guide recommends none. Food experiences in Korea are listed on platforms such as Klook and Trazy, and a map app helps for local restaurants. Concerts start at 6:00 PM, so schedule dinner around that time.

Compare Hotels After Setting Your Date

No confirmed accommodation information exists either. Once you know which singer’s night you want, compare Goheung-area hotels on Agoda or Booking.com, looking at rates and cancellation rules together.

The festival runs November 12–15, and November 14–15 fall on a Saturday and Sunday, so weekend rates may differ from weekday rates. Hotel prices are not listed here because none were confirmed.

💡 Search Goheung-area stays on Trip.com and compare prices date by date!

Because the concert ends after dark, booking your room first keeps the schedule easy. When you choose a hotel, look at the distance to the venue, parking availability and check-in time together. A rate with a cancellation policy makes it easier to adjust if plans change. Comparing prices across several dates can narrow the cost gap even within the same area.
