The November 14 Gunsan Fireworks Festival and 4 Daytime Outings Around the Inner Harbor

A day linking the 20:00 fireworks show with modern-history exhibits and a maritime park

Combine night fireworks at Gunsan's inner harbor with a daytime outing in the old downtown for one trip. The 2026 Gunsan Fireworks Festival takes place at 20:00 on Saturday, November 14, around the Inner Harbor Waterfront Park, with a fireworks show on the water set to music planned for about 30 minutes. This list introduces the fireworks festival plus four nearby places to visit during the day.

At the Gunsan Modern History Museum, the Gunsan Modern Art Museum, and the Gunsan Modern Architecture Museum, you can explore exhibits and old buildings, while Jinpo Maritime Theme Park is an option for adding maritime stories from around the inner harbor. The exhibition facilities follow winter operating hours in November, so it's better to plan your visits for the afternoon rather than dropping by late while waiting for the evening fireworks.

Pick one or two places depending on whether you want to see history exhibits, or explore architectural spaces or the maritime park. Leaving time for a meal and travel after your daytime visits lets you connect your day to the 20:00 fireworks show. The four places were chosen as nearby destinations; this isn't a list of official fireworks viewing areas or specific vantage points.

Fireworks at the Gunsan Inner Harbor at 20:00

The Gunsan Fireworks Festival takes place at 20:00 on Saturday, November 14 at the Gunsan Inner Harbor Waterfront Park around 49-2 Jangmi-dong. A fireworks show on the water set to music is planned for about 30 minutes against the backdrop of Dongbaek Bridge and the Geum River estuary.

It was introduced as an event that focuses on the fireworks rather than formalities such as congratulatory speeches. Plan your dinner and travel time separately after your daytime sightseeing, and once you arrive at the venue, find your spot within the designated viewing areas and barrier lines.

Gunsan Modern History Museum

Gunsan Modern History Museum

A Museum for Reading Gunsan's Port History Before the Fireworks

The Gunsan Modern History Museum is a place to explore Gunsan's modern and maritime culture together. Through the Maritime Logistics History Hall and the Modern Life Hall, you can learn about the port's role and how people lived at the time, then continue your trip with the evening scenery of the inner harbor.

In November, winter hours of 09:00–17:00 apply. Explore the exhibits as your first stop in the afternoon, then choose the art museum or the architecture museum to connect the stories of Gunsan's port and old downtown. Schedule dinner and the 20:00 fireworks for after the exhibits close.

Gunsan Modern Art Museum

Gunsan Modern Art Museum

Art and Modern Architecture at the Former 18th Bank

The Gunsan Modern Art Museum is an exhibition space that uses the former Gunsan branch building of the Japanese 18th Bank. If the history museum gave you the city's big picture, here you can see another side of the old downtown through the form of the bank building and its exhibits.

In winter, it's open from 09:00 to 17:00, with last admission at 16:30. In the late afternoon, you may not have enough time to see the inside, so decide your visiting order based on whether you just want photos of the exterior or also want to see the indoor exhibits.

Gunsan Modern Architecture Museum

Gunsan Modern Architecture Museum

Gunsan's Transformation Through the Former Bank of Chosen Building

The Gunsan Modern Architecture Museum uses the former Gunsan branch building of the Bank of Chosen, built in 1923. As you take in its red-brick exterior and high-ceilinged interior, you can reflect on how the history of colonial finance and exploitation is connected to the changes in the city of Gunsan.

It's a different building from the former 18th Bank that houses the art museum, so keep the names straight when planning your route. November hours are 09:00–17:00, with last admission at 16:30. If you're interested in architecture and history, you can make a daytime course comparing the two bank buildings.

Jinpo Marine Theme Park

Jinpo Marine Theme Park

Jinpo Maritime Theme Park, with the Wibong and Retired Equipment

Jinpo Maritime Theme Park is a maritime park on the inner harbor commemorating General Choe Mu-seon's cannons and the Battle of Jinpo. You can see retired warships, including the Wibong, and military equipment, making it a hands-on daytime outing that's different from an indoor museum.

Winter viewing hours for exhibition facilities such as the Wibong are 09:00–17:00, with admission closing 30 minutes before closing time. Distinguish between the outdoor park and the exhibition facilities, and since there may be closures different from usual on fireworks day, follow the on-site guidance as you get around.

In the afternoon, choose what interests you from the museum, the old bank buildings, and the maritime park. After the exhibits, have a meal and head to the inner harbor to experience daytime Gunsan and nighttime fireworks in a single trip. It's been reported that there will be no food or vendor booths at the venue, so it's a good idea to plan ahead for nearby restaurants.

Arrive in time for the 20:00 fireworks show, and check for additional information on seating, parking, and traffic closures before the event. You'll also need to check on the day of your visit whether any nearby attractions are temporarily closed. The poster and attraction photos used here are official introductory materials released before the event.
