About

Korea's largest military culture festival, hosted by the ROK Army on the runway of Gyeryongdae — the tri-service headquarters. Five days of the latest Korean and US combat equipment on display (much of it climbable), Army TIGER and drone-bot demonstrations, AI-based combat systems at the army policy hall, and a full slate of military pageantry: military band and honor guard shows, taekwondo demonstrations, military police motorcycle drills, and road parades. Free, 09:00–17:00 over the Chuseok holiday window.

Description translated from official Korean tourism data. Details can change — verify with the organizer before you go.
