Independence Fair Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the June 10 Independence Movement
Nov 4 – Nov 6, 2026
2026 marks the 100th anniversary of the June 10 Independence Movement. To mark this centennial, the 'Independence Fair Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the June 10 Independence Movement' is being held, offering a new way to encounter the meaning of the independence movement within today's everyday life. This Independence Fair will be held at Andong International Convention Center as a multi-part event combining exhibitions, hands-on experiences, lectures, talks, education, and culture. In the 'Exhibition Zone,' the scenes of the June 10 Independence Movement are recreated, allowing visitors to indirectly absorb historical knowledge, while the 'Experience Zone,' working together with various memorial and veterans affairs organizations, offers participatory content so that future generations can naturally learn about the June 10 Independence Movement, a subject that has often been seen as difficult. Indoors, a variety of programs are arranged, including informative lectures and talk shows aimed at teenagers, while outdoors, performances and rest areas are considered to create a lively and enjoyable festival. This forward-looking 'patriots and veterans culture' is carried out in today's language and style, based on the belief that it should be something 'anyone can enjoy easily and with fun.'
