Korea’s summer rock festival, Incheon Pentaport Rock Festival

Date:

What festival comes to your mind when you think of summer festivals? You will think of festivals where you can see various beautiful scenery such as rose festivals and snowflake festivals, but I think you will think of rock festivals in this hot summer. A rock festival where you can dance to the beat and guitar riff of drums and bass that resonate with people in a large square and enjoy singing along! My heart is pounding just thinking about it. Today, I will introduce Incheon Pentaport Rock Festival, which is the most famous summer rock festival in Korea.

1. What is a Incheon Pentaport Rock Festival?

Incheon Pentaport Rock Festival is a rock festival held every July to August in Incheon. It is the largest rock festival in Korea along with the Busan International Rock Festival. The name Pentaport means five ports, Incheon Airport, Incheon Port, Information Port, Business Port, and Leisure Port, and it is named after Incheon Metropolitan City’s urban development strategy. The Incheon Pentaport Rock Festival, which started in 1999 under the name of “Tripport Rock Festival,” has become a traditional rock festival representing Korea.
