Seoul Land in Gwacheon will open a Christmas market on October 17 at its Christmas 365 Town, featuring seasonal content that combines Christmas and Halloween festivities.


According to Seoul Land on October 14, the market will showcase a warm Christmas atmosphere enhanced by cheerful Halloween elements.


Visitors can expect a unique autumn outing experience with a variety of seasonal products, activities, and food centered around a dazzling Christmas tree and a large ghost balloon.


At the heart of the market, a Christmas tree adorned with lights and ornaments will be accompanied by an 8-meter tall Halloween ghost balloon.


Notably, the ghost balloon will feature a playful design where Santa's feet appear to be sticking out from beneath the ghost, cleverly merging the vibes of both holidays.


This space, combining elements from both seasons, will serve as a photo zone for visitors to capture memorable moments.


Surrounding the tree, booths will reinterpret European Christmas markets, offering a range of products including Christmas music boxes, seasonal decorations, character merchandise, children's toys, and winter items.


Crafting experience programs will also be available, allowing guests to create mini trees and decorate keychains and phone cases. Treats such as meringue cookies and fruit snacks will be provided as well.


To enhance the Christmas atmosphere, artificial snow will be simulated around the tree and market area, allowing visitors to enjoy a winter ambiance and take photos.


Halloween-themed programs will also be featured.


At Seoul Land's 'K-Dopamine Ghost Festival,' activities will include a 'K-Ghost Random Play Dance' where guests can dance along with ghost dancers to K-POP music, and a 'K-Ghost Singing Contest' where attendees can showcase their singing talents on stage.


A 'K-Ghost Prank Call' activity will add a fun twist typical of Halloween.


Inside the Christmas 365 Town's 'Pumpkin House,' guests can dress up as ghosts and take commemorative photos in a pumpkin-decorated space, creating an enjoyable Halloween atmosphere for families, couples, and friends.


Seoul Land has designed this Christmas market to allow visitors to experience the excitement of Christmas alongside the joyful fun of Halloween.


The market, crafting programs, and ghost festival will provide a variety of entertainment options for autumn visitors.


Meanwhile, Song Hyun-jung, the deputy manager of Seoul Land, stated, “This Christmas market is prepared to convey the excitement of Christmas a little early while also allowing guests to enjoy the cheerful fun of Halloween.”


She added, “We hope families, couples, and friends will explore the market and enjoy various experiences and performances, creating special autumn memories at Seoul Land.”
