Notes on the 2024 edition

18th edition, theme 'A healing journey in search of flowers'. About 210,000 visitors. A warm autumn delayed blooming, so the chrysanthemum sculptures stayed up for self-guided viewing until 17 November.

About the festival

The Geoje Island Flower Festival (거제섬꽃축제) is a free autumn chrysanthemum festival at the Geoje Agricultural Development Center and the neighbouring Geoje Botanical Garden in Geoje, Gyeongsangnam-do; about 300,000 people came in 2025. The 20th edition, planned for 30 October–8 November 2026, was cancelled after record August rain flooded the grounds. Geoje City says the festival will return in 2027, probably in late October or early November, but no dates have been announced. Entry and parking are free; the Jungle Dome greenhouse next door costs ₩5,000 for adults.

Transport, booking, crowd and accessibility details are on the main Geoje Island Flower Festival page, which covers every edition.
