2026 Seoul Urban Agriculture Expo

The 15th Seoul Urban Agriculture Expo, to be held from October 16th to 17th, 2026, at the Seoul Forest Eastern Leisure Center, aims to convey the value of urban agriculture, not just by observing greenery in the city, but by allowing citizens to directly plant, touch, and cultivate plants, thereby restoring peace of mind and body. The slogan for this year's expo is "Companion Plants: A Green Pause for Your Heart!"

The event will feature five zones: a thematic zone, a promotional zone, an experiential zone, an exhibition of urban agriculture lifestyle models, and an exhibition of garden crops. Experiential programs will include activities such as rice harvesting and egg-packing, insect exploration, makgeolli (Korean rice wine) making, and catching grasshoppers.
