The Yangyang Cultural Foundation has announced the upcoming 'Yangyang Naksansa Beach Moonlit Bonfire Festival', scheduled from February 28 to March 1 at Naksansa Beach's B Zone. This festival is distinct for its focus on providing a calm and immersive environment where visitors can enjoy the crackling of bonfires and the sound of ocean waves under the winter moonlight, aiming to offer a peaceful retreat from the city's hustle and bustle.

The festival's centerpiece, the 'Moonlit Bonfire Zone', features intimate settings for families and couples to enjoy the warmth of bonfires, with a charge of 10,000 KRW for the experience. There will be a total of 80 bonfire spots available each day, with reservations managed via the 'Gogoyangyang' app on a first-come, first-served basis, while some spots will be available for walk-in registrations. Operating hours for the festival are from 4 PM to 9 PM.

In addition to the bonfires, the festival offers various engaging activities including acoustic busking that harmonizes with wave sounds, a photo zone for capturing moments against the backdrop of a full moon, and glow-in-the-dark face painting for self-expression in the dark. Attendees will also have access to a winter snack market featuring local treats at reasonable prices, highlighting popular winter foods such as hotteok and spicy rice cakes. A representative from the Yangyang Cultural Foundation emphasized that the festival's focus is on sensory experiences and romantic atmospheres, encouraging visitors to create warm memories during winter nights at Naksansa Beach.
