YGPA provided students with various career exploration opportunities by combining experiential events such as boarding a naval warship and exhibitions of army and air force equipment in the festival program.

Additionally, a variety of programs were prepared for local residents and port workers' families to heal at the end of the unusually hot summer of 2024, including performances by local cultural artists, a naval military band performance, a popular singer's invited performance, and a world record challenge by the authority's promotional ambassador, Barefoot Man Jo Seung-hwan, receiving great responses from the audience.
