About the festival

The Namdo K-Garden Festival is a provincial garden festival that Jeollanam-do started in 2025 and moves between counties; the 2026 edition is a free night garden show of about 40 gardens on Yeomun Culture Street and Yeoseo Mikwan Plaza in central Yeosu. It runs every day from 11 September to 31 October 2026, 15:00–21:00, with the gardens lit after dark. From Seoul, the KTX from Yongsan to Yeosu EXPO Station takes about 2 h 50 m–3 h 10 m (₩45,400), then a taxi across town. No 2027 edition or host has been announced.

Transport, booking, crowd and accessibility details are on the main Namdo K-Garden Festival page, which covers every edition.
