The 25th Gyeongsan Gatbawi Wish Fulfillment Festival is a festival embodying the long tradition of prayer and wish fulfillment at the treasure 'Gyeongsan Palgongsan Gwanbong Seokjoyeoraejwasang (Gatbawi)'. Under the slogan 'Millennium Wish Sanctuary, Gyeongsan Gatbawi Renaissance,' it is a participatory cultural festival blending traditional culture with modern performances, held over two days from September 19 to 20 at the Gatbawi 3rd Public Parking Lot area. On September 19, starting with the Yadan Beopseok (open-air dharma assembly) featuring rock bands, Gakseori performances, dharma talks, sound meditation, and voice offerings, the opening ceremony will include a harmony wish bibimbap offering performance and a healing music concert where Korean traditional musician Nam Sang-il and singers Radio & Jeong-in deliver diverse resonance. On September 20, the Gyeongsan City Symphony Orchestra, baritone Kim Dong-gyu, soprano Kang Hye-jung, and the Gyeongsan City Choir will collaborate to present a refined mountain temple music concert. At the venue, experience programs such as temple run, Ven. Hongseung's temple food demonstration, and hanging my own wish lantern allow citizens and tourists to participate directly and find healing. With booths selling Gyeongsan agricultural specialties including the region's representative product 'Wachon plum' and a food market, this is Gyeongsan City's signature festival wishing for everyone's wish fulfillment amid abundant food and entertainment.
