The 22nd Outstanding Rural Madanggeuk Festival

About this event

While most festivals target only cities, the Outstanding Rural Madanggeuk Festival began as an arts festival for local residents in culturally underserved rural areas and has now expanded into an arts festival visited by urban citizens as well. The festival serves as a gathering place where people pause, heal their minds, laugh, and enjoy together, bringing artists and all visitors into the courtyard to experience various traditional arts and plays. - Date/Time: Sep 4, 2026 (Fri) 15:00–20:30 - Location: Cheongju Chojeong Haenggung Special Stage - Main Programs: Yeo Hyeon-soo's <Yonggi Nori (Courage Play)> / Jeungpyeong Namdo Folk Song <Namdo Sori> / (Sadaenbeob-in) National Intangible Heritage Tongyeong Ogwangdae Preservation Society <Tongyeong Ogwangdae> / Special Performance <5 Maskers Appearing Anytime, Anywhere (Dodo 5-gwangdae)> - Side Events & Programs: Face painting / Hanbok experience / Bookbinding / Lantern making / Natural dyeing / Folk game experience, etc. - Date/Time: Sep 5, 2026 (Sat) 14:00–20:40 - Location: Cheongju Chojeong Haenggung Special Stage - Main Programs: <Drunk on Sound, Colored by Sound> / Art Factory Dure <Kind Sam-bong Kim> / People Cultivating Joy <Dengsil-dengsil Gkaebi-gkaebi> / Theater Company Dandelion <Poop Thunder> / Special Performance <Dodo 5-gwangdae> - Side Events & Programs: Calligraphy experience / Face painting / Hanbok experience / Bookbinding / Lantern making / Natural dyeing / Folk game experience, etc. - Date/Time: Sep 6, 2026 (Sun) 13:00–19:20 - Location: Cheongju Chojeong Haenggung Special Stage - Main Programs: Traditional Yeonhui Institute Breath <Pannoreum 'Heoteun'> / Yeonhui Group The Gwangdae <The Spinners, The Jumpers, The Flyers> / Theater Company Keundeul <Hyojajeon (Story of the Filial Son)> / Traditional Yeonhui Group Nanjang & Pan <Let's Play a Round of Nanjang> / Special Performance <Dodo 5-gwangdae> - Side Events & Programs: Calligraphy experience / Face painting / Hanbok experience / Bookbinding / Lantern making / Natural dyeing / Folk game experience, etc.
