Moonlight Music Festival

The Moonlight Music Festival is a cultural and arts performance series designed to let people enjoy music on autumn nights from September through October in familiar, everyday settings across Daejeon’s five districts. As an open-air event free to all citizens, it will feature a total of five performances—one in each district. Against the backdrop of cool autumn nights, local artists performing a variety of genres will take the stage, alongside performances by popular singers. By adding music to the familiar and comfortable parks and riversides in the city center, the Moonlight Music Festival aims to provide special moments and experiences where families, couples, and friends can enjoy music together and share the joy of live performances as part of their daily lives.

Free open-air concerts spread across five of Daejeon's parks and riverside spots on autumn nights, mixing local artists with popular singers. It's a low-key way to see the city's everyday green spaces — lakesides, parks, a stream — come alive after dark.

Daejeon is about an hour from Seoul by KTX from Seoul Station or Yongsan Station to Daejeon Station, or by express bus from Seoul Express Bus Terminal. From Daejeon Station or the bus terminal, take a local bus or taxi to whichever of the five venues is hosting that night, since they're spread across different districts.
