About the festival
During the day, Baeknyeon Market, rich in history, transforms into a nighttime playground filled with music, games, and delicious food. Recognized as the best cultural tourism market in the country in 2025, Baeknyeon Market's representative night market 'Baeknyeon Night' will return from August 7 to 8, 2026, themed 'Return of the Catfish'. Under the giant mirror ball in the center of the event area, bingo games and performance events will take place, with DJing, game programs, and events continuing in each zone. Visitors can enjoy songs chosen through 'Baeknyeon Song Request' flowing through the market alleys, and use the exchange tickets received from purchase receipt verification and catfish games to enjoy various events and cocktails. 'Baeknyeon Booking' will also be operated on-site, allowing new teams to mingle naturally. In the food zone, where mobile food stalls and late-night menu items from market shops come together, visitors can encounter a variety of unique foods exclusive to Baeknyeon Market. This festival offers a different kind of fun compared to typical stage-centered festivals, as attendees can listen to music, participate in games, and enjoy food while wandering through the market alleys.
