Seoul will bring back its popular Han River Drone Light Show this autumn, with three performances scheduled at Ttukseom Hangang Park on September 12, October 9, and October 31.
The final show of the season will be the largest in the event’s history.
In partnership with The Walt Disney Company Korea, the October 31 performance will feature a Marvel-themed display using 2,000 drones, creating large-scale animations inspired by the comic book franchise.
The drone shows have become one of Seoul’s signature nighttime attractions, drawing more than 125,000 spectators during the first half of this year’s season.
City officials said about one-third of attendees were international visitors, highlighting the event’s growing appeal among overseas tourists.
To enhance the visitor experience during the remaining performances, Seoul plans to introduce additional services, including improved food delivery options for foreign visitors and a local farmers’ market near the venue.
Because the performances take place outdoors, schedules may change depending on weather conditions. Visitors are encouraged to check the official Seoul Drone Show website and social media channels before attending.
