About
The 2026 Yeongju Apple Festival is an autumn festival for enjoying top-quality apples grown in Yeongju's clean nature with all five senses. This year it brings the taste of Yeongju apples to both the growing region and the city: it runs October 30–November 1 around Miro Park in Buseok-myeon, and again November 13–15 at Cheonggye Plaza in Seoul. Yeongju apples are known for their high sugar content and crisp texture, thanks to big day-night temperature swings and plenty of sunshine. The festival offers hands-on programs, displays of many apple varieties, an apple market, tastings and cultural performances, and visitors can also enjoy autumn scenery at Buseoksa Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
