Bucheon City in Gyeonggi Province will host the '2025 Bucheon Woojoe Chicken and Beer Festival in BIFAN' on July 4 and 5 at the City Hall Lawn Square and the surrounding car-free street area.
The festival will be held in conjunction with the 29th Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival, under the theme 'Beer & Movie, Beer & Music.' People of all ages can enjoy a variety of free programs at the lawn square, including movies, busking performances, and a concert by the Bucheon Philharmonic Orchestra.
A flea market will also be operated to promote local coexistence, offering visitors a chance to discover a wide range of products from small and medium-sized businesses and local merchants.
Additionally, attendees who use a tumbler or reusable cup can purchase craft beer at a 500-won discount. There will also be an event where visitors can take photos at the chicken and beer photo zone and receive prizes such as tumblers and keyrings on a first-come, first-served basis by following Bucheon City on Instagram.
