The “2026 Pohang Sunrise Noodle Festival” is a grand culinary festival held at Ara Plaza in Guryongpo on the Homi Peninsula, where the sun rises earliest in South Korea. The festival’s name, “When the Sun Rises,” intuitively captures not only the symbolism of the Homi Peninsula—where the sun rises first in South Korea—but also the sheer joy of lifting chewy noodles and savoring rich broth. Visitors can sample everything from Pohang’s best noodle restaurants to representative noodle dishes from across Korea, global noodles, and recipes by star chefs—all in one place. The festival also offers a wealth of entertainment, including a music festival for all ages, cooking competitions, and retro experiences. Equipped with an eco-friendly system featuring smart QR ordering and reusable containers, the festival offers a unique culinary journey exclusive to Pohang—where flavor and excitement are awakened amidst the vibrant energy of the East Sea.
