The 2026 Gangneung Danoje Festival took place June 15–22 at Namdaecheon Danojang in Noam-dong. Those dates have passed, and the festival’s English schedule page has no later edition date to plan around. Wait for a published programme before booking a future festival trip.
Use the programme to choose a date
The festival committee’s 2026 programme covers all eight festival days and gives event times. For a future edition, check the new schedule alongside Gangneung City’s venue information; individual performances may be listed on different days or at different locations.
Build the visit around one listed event
Once dates are confirmed, pick the performance or ritual that matters most to your group. Leave room for entry, moving between programme areas and the return journey. Without a published schedule for your travel dates, treat the visit as a Gangneung city break rather than a confirmed festival outing.
Danoje carries local Dano traditions, including the Gwanno mask dance drama; UNESCO’s Gangneung Danoje listing explains its heritage context. Check the committee’s current notice and the Gangneung City Danoje page for event access and transport details.
