2026.09.04 12:10
I heard that the prime paid spots for the 2026 Yeouido Fireworks Festival are already sold out😭 But still, I’ve compiled a list of all the best free spots where you can properly watch the fireworks without spending a single penny.
Did everyone clear their schedules for this weekend?! 😆 Finally coming 2026 Seoul World Fireworks Festival on Saturday, September 5th, in the Yeouido Han River area It's opening. But looking at social media these days, I heard that prime paid spots like the Starbucks Yeouido Hangang branch and Ashley Queens at the cruise dock are already fully booked, even though they cost hundreds of thousands of won. On top of that, Nodeul Island, which used to be a free attraction, sold out long ago as it switched to a paid ticket system for all zones this year.😢 So where are ordinary citizens like us supposed to watch? Don't worry, there are plenty of places where you can enjoy the view without spending any money! I'll tell you about them right now✨
1. Start by checking the festival schedule
Make sure to check the date and time first; you'll be in big trouble if you get confused!
📅 Date: September 5, 2026 (Sat) 13:00–22:00
📍 Location: Yeouido Hangang Park area (Mapo Bridge ~ Hangang Railway Bridge)
🎆 Fireworks Show: 20:00–21:10 (UK 20:00–20:15 / US 20:20–20:35 / Korea 20:40–21:10)
🎧 After DJ Performance: 21:10~22:00
The structure features performances by teams from the three countries—the UK, the US, and Korea—playing consecutively in order. That's what I found out. If you check the schedule in advance, it's advantageous for moving around to the best viewing spots!
2. Free, classic prime spots near Yeouido
first There is no admission fee for Hangang Park itself, so everything is free to view. They are authentic auspicious sites where you just have to put up with the people.
• Yeouido Hangang Park (330 Yeouidong-ro, Yeongdeungpo-gu / Line 5 Yeouinaru Station Exit 2 & 3) — It is the main venue, so it is the closest and most lively, but it is also the most crowded.
• Ichon Hangang Park (Ichon-dong, Yongsan-gu / Exit 4 of Ichon Station (Line 4 & Gyeongui-Jungang Line), 10-minute walk) — You can comfortably view the entire fireworks from across the river.
• Saeyuksin Park (191 Noryangjin-ro, Dongjak-gu / 10-minute walk from Exit 2 of Noryangjin Station (Line 1) and Exit 1 of Nodeul Station (Line 9) — A prime free spot on a hill where you can also enjoy the city night view.
• Banpo Hangang Park (40, Sinbanpo-ro 11-gil, Seocho-gu / Exit 1, Sinbanpo Station, Line 9) — Fireworks unfolding over Dongjak Bridge, but it is the unwritten rule to secure a spot early in the morning.
3. 3 Hidden Free Spots Known Only to the Old-Timers
A place that is quietly gaining popularity on social media, where you don't have to go all the way to Yeouido. It's here. It's much less crowded, so it's trending these days!
| location | Location/Access | characteristic |
| Dalma Park | Heukseok-dong, Dongjak-gu, Sangdo Station (Line 7) and Line 9 |
Heukseok Station + Village Bus. Due to the elevated location, the view toward Yeouido is unobstructed, allowing you to see the Seoul city nightscape all at once.
|

| Seongchon Park | Yongsan-gu, towards Exit 3 of Yongsan Station (Line 1). |
There are many reviews saying that the spots near the fire station and the fireworks beyond the pedestrian overpass towards the 63 Building offer a good view.

4. If you want to take your time and watch, even if it's a bit far
If you prioritize a relaxed atmosphere over seeing a large fireworks display, consider this option. However, the scale appears relatively smaller.
Hyeonseok Interchange (Hyeonseok-dong, Mapo-gu) — Enjoy the view of the Han River and the city center from the northwest of Yeouido.
Yanghwa Hangang Park — There is a point with an unobstructed view toward Dangsan Railway Bridge.
Mangwon Hangang Park — It is a bit far from Yeouido, but you can definitely avoid the congestion.
However, ⚠️ viewing is not allowed on Wonhyo Bridge itself! The Seoul Metropolitan Government has announced that the roadway and sidewalks of Wonhyo Bridge will be completely closed from 9:00 AM on September 5th until 3:00 AM the following day, so please do not take a spot on the bridge.
5. Transportation information to check before you go
Yeouidong-ro will be completely closed from 3 PM to midnight on September 5. It works.
Trains at Yeouinaru Station will pass through without stopping or entrances will be closed during peak hours from 7 PM to 10 PM. It can be.
The Seoul Metropolitan Government is reportedly increasing the frequency of Lines 5 and 9 by a total of 83 runs and deploying approximately 6,800 safety personnel.
Essential items to bring include a mat, power bank, water and snacks, and a light jacket or lap blanket! The wind along the Han River at night is colder than you might expect.
Please don't forget to be considerate and take a trash bag with you and clean up your area after the performance.🙏
