Gimpo Marine Corps Culture Festival in Daemyeong Port

The Gimpo Marine Corps Culture Festival in Daemyeong Port is a celebration that honors the strong spirit and traditions of the Marine Corps, leveraging the region's unique characteristic as the base of the 2nd Marine Division. Featuring a variety of programs including Marine Corps equipment exhibitions, performances by the military band and honor guard, a "Steel Muscle" contest, and workshops for making dog tags and octagonal caps, the festival provides a venue for citizens to directly experience and interact with Marine Corps culture. Additionally, the "Sunset Night Market" operates on the rooftop plaza of the Seafood Market, offering visitors the chance to enjoy Gimpo's culinary delights, such as seasonal seafood, local produce, and self-service barbecue. As the sun sets, a food market with a night market atmosphere and busking performances take place against the backdrop of the sunset at Daemyeong Port. It is a special occasion where visitors can experience two distinct festival themes in one space: Marine Corps culture during the day and the sunset and food at night.
