The Sejong Hangeul Festival is the only festival in Korea dedicated to Hangeul, the Korean alphabet. Held every year around Hangeul Day, it is Sejong City’s signature celebration of the Korean writing system. Launched in 2013, the festival honors the vision behind King Sejong’s creation of Hangeul. In 2025, it was renamed the Sejong Hangeul Festival from its former name, the Sejong Festival. The festival brings the beauty and creativity of Hangeul to life through performances, exhibitions, and hands-on programs with a fresh, contemporary touch. Open to visitors of all ages and nationalities, it offers an easy and engaging way to experience the appeal of Hangeul and the spirit of King Sejong in the heart of the city. Blending traditional and contemporary arts and culture, the festival continues to grow as a distinctive cultural tourism event unique to Sejong City.
