Info only · no booking hereAbout
Gwacheon Performing Arts Festival, which began in 1997 as the World Madanggeuk Festival, is Korea's first street theater festival. Held every September, it features high-quality performances centered on domestic and international outdoor plays and street theater. As a venue for experimentation by artists from home and abroad, it offers a rich array of spectacles—including overseas performances, domestic performances, and curated programs—during the festival period, allowing any ordinary citizen to enjoy diverse culture without burden. Drawing over 100,000 visitors annually, the Gwacheon Performing Arts Festival has grown into a festival representing Asia and is a citizen-led arts festival created together with the public. Since 2023, the festival has been renamed the Gwacheon Performing Arts Festival (GPAF), continuing with the public as a plaza-focused performing arts festival.
