2026 Incheon Pentaport Music Festival to open in July
SEOUL, March 5 (Yonhap) -- The annual Incheon Pentaport Music Festival, one of South Korea's largest rock events, will return for a three-day run in the western port city in July, organizers said Thursday.
Hosted by the Incheon metropolitan government, the festival has been held every year in the city's Songdo district, about 30 kilometers west of Seoul, since 2006. The 21st edition will take place from July 31 to Aug. 2.
This year's event will be held under the theme "movement," reflecting the organizers' aim to capture the dynamic spread of music beyond the stage to people, cities and across Asia.
"We plan to strengthen the festival's role as a platform for meaningful exchanges between domestic and overseas musicians and industry figures, rather than simply a show to watch and enjoy," a Pentaport official said.
