About
The Hadong Wild Tea Cultural Festival is held every May in Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, Korea’s first tea cultivation site. Designated by the government as an Honorary Cultural Tourism Festival, the festival celebrates Hadong’s wild tea, long renowned for its rich flavor and aroma and grown in the area’s pristine natural environment. Since hosting the Hadong World Tea Expo in 2023, Hadong has strengthened its identity as a “tea wellness culture city” and continued to enhance the value of its tea industry and culture. In 2026, the festival marks its 29th edition
Visit Hadong in May, when the landscape is at its freshest and greenest, and enjoy music and art programs such as “Busking in a Teacup” and “Melody on Tea Leaves,” along with healing programs including tea classes, book talks, and walks along the Horibyeong Byeolcheonji Trail. Here, a single cup of tea can turn an ordinary day into something special while allowing visitors experience the full flavor and charm of Hadong. This year, the festival will also feature a variety of Children’s Day programs for the whole family on May 5.
