The “Wanju Wild & Local Food Festival,” Wanju-gun’s flagship festival, is an event for people of all ages to enjoy unique, “WILD” experiences—unlike anything found in everyday life—amidst Wanju’s pristine nature, as well as healthy local(LOCAL) food—all within Wanju’s pristine natural surroundings. The 2026 festival, themed “The Raging Wild,” will feature signature programs such as fiery hearth grilling, local bushcraft, potato samguk, and large-scale fire-themed events. Other highlights include water activities on the Sirang Stream, a straw-hut slide, and other “Wild Playgrounds” that embrace nature, a “Local Table” featuring dishes lovingly prepared by chefs from women’s associations across 13 towns and villages, a direct-sales market for agricultural specialties, and a “Wild Wapu” EDM music party. Visitors can experience the charm of autumn while enjoying a blend of memories, nostalgia, escapism, and healing all at once.
