2025 Jeonnam World Gimbap Festival – A single roll of Namdo flavor captivating the world!
A festival where you can savor Namdo’s flavors and stories, all wrapped up in one roll of gimbap. Fresh ingredients from the sea and fields come together in each roll, offering a unique chance to experience both tradition and global flair.
At the venue, marked by a giant, playful gimbap sculpture, visitors can explore the history and culture of seaweed through the K-GIMBAP Memory Timeline.
Children can join gimbap classes and gimbap art activities, while visitors can create their own rolls in traditional and fusion cooking classes with renowned chefs.
Tastings and sales of gimbap made with specialties from Jeonnam’s 22 cities and counties, unique gimbap streets, and snack bar delights add to the fun. The participation of multicultural families and foreigners in rolling global style gimbap, along with exhibitions of international specialties, highlights the globalization of gimbap.
Eco-friendly zones with lawn picnics, healing gimbap rolls, and puffed-rice platters provide spaces to eat, create, play, and relax—all in one location.
With just one roll of gimbap, enjoy the taste and style of Namdo and become the star of this global culinary festival!
