Gangnam Festival K-Pop Concert on October 4 — What Fans Traveling to Korea Should Know

K-pop fans weighing a trip to Seoul in early October may want to keep an eye on the schedule for Gangnam's Dosan-daero. The K-pop concert at the 2026 Gangnam Festival will take place on Sunday, October 4, bringing seven acts to a single stage: PSY, ZEROBASEONE, P1Harmony, KiiiKiii, LUN8, SAY MY NAME and ALPHA DRIVE ONE.

The fact that the ticket sale opens at exactly 8 p.m. Korea time on a Tuesday is important information for fans planning a trip. If you're in a region with a big time difference, it's worth converting this time to your local time in advance and setting an alarm. However, whether tickets can be paid for directly on Ticketlink with an overseas-issued card, and what the ticket price and per-person purchase limit will be, are not yet specified in the ticketing platform's official announcement — this is something to check again on Ticketlink before sales open.

Around the Dosan-daero venue, some sections of traffic may be controlled during the October 3–4 festival period, so using public transit is recommended. The nearest subway stations are Apgujeong or Sinsa on Line 3, and Apgujeong Rodeo on the Suin-Bundang and Sinbundang lines, and it's best to confirm the exact nearest exit once official guidance is released. Details on fan chants and on-site rules haven't been officially announced yet either, so this is another area to watch for future notices on the festival website (visitgangnam.net/festival).
