LetsRun Park Busan Gyeongnam will additionally operate a Water Festival.

This year, in celebration of the summer vacation and holiday season, the festival will expand its operation to three days a week (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) for two weeks from August 2 to 11. It will also be open on August 15, Gwangbokjeol, easing parents’ worries about finding holiday outing spots. The event is divided into morning and afternoon sessions, with an admission fee of 5,000 won per session.

Despite the affordable admission, the Water Festival boasts facilities comparable to professional water parks, including a 30-meter “giant waterslide,” “large water pool,” “children’s pool,” and a total of six types of air bounce attractions with safety features. Families can also enjoy a variety of events tailored to their interests, such as exhilarating water gun battles under cool water sprays and random play dance sessions.

Personal camping gear and food are allowed inside the venue, and food trucks, a customer restaurant, and a convenience store are available at reasonable prices. Visitors can also enjoy horse-themed attractions such as children’s horseback riding experiences, a racecourse tour, a year-round sledding hill, and the eco-trail, providing a relaxing summer escape filled with leisure and fun.

Um Youngseok, head of the Busan Gyeongnam branch of Korea Racing Authority, said, “We hope to become a family park where everyone can visit without financial burden, especially in this era of high prices. While admission is affordable, we are committed to providing safe and satisfying facilities.”
