Bottom line: A free media-art show called "Seoullo Media Canvas" is running right now on Seoullo 7017, the elevated walkway next to Seoul Station. No ticket, no reservation — just show up through November 30, 2026.

If you didn't know: The screen goes dark for good after November 30 — this run doesn't repeat, and past editions lasted only a couple of months each (the first two ran roughly July–September and September–November 2026). Skip it now and you could be waiting months for the next one.

How we checked this

The City of Seoul's official event listing page describes this year's third Seoullo Media Canvas exhibition as free with no reservation required, running from 19:00 on September 30 to 23:00 on November 30, 2026. Seoullo Media Canvas is a large media-art screen built into the Seoullo 7017 overpass — Seoul Station's old highway ramp turned into a sky garden — and it lights up after dark for people walking the path. The notice doesn't list a daily nightly cutoff time, but the previous edition ran from 20:00 to 23:00, so evening is the safest time to go. This was checked on 2026-11-01 against the official Seoullo Media Canvas event registration page (event-us.kr).

Next up: The Han River light festival at Nodeul Island already wrapped up on October 11; the next lighting event will be announced once Seoul's culture portal (culture.seoul.go.kr) posts its December schedule.
