Changwon Special City announced the launch of the 'Chrysanthemum Tour Pass' on October 28, coinciding with the 26th Masang Gagopa Chrysanthemum Festival. The pass aims to provide visitors with various discounts and stimulate the local economy.
The Chrysanthemum Tour Pass combines a 24-hour integrated Changwon Tour Pass with special discounts for the festival, available in a limited quantity of 1,000 for 12,900 won. The festival will run from October 31 to November 8.
A key feature of the Chrysanthemum Tour Pass is the special discount available at participating booths within the festival. Visitors can receive a 2,000 won discount at each booth, with a total discount of up to 6,000 won available across three different booths.
Using the pass is straightforward. Visitors can present their mobile ticket at participating booths to receive discounts on-site. Additionally, the pass allows users to enjoy benefits at existing Changwon Tour Pass partner stores, enabling them to experience both the festival and local attractions.
To enhance local business engagement, Changwon City has secured six new partner stores near the first festival site at 3.15 Marine Nuri Park and the second site adjacent to Happo Waterfront Park and Masang Seafood Market.
This initiative aims to encourage tourists to visit nearby traditional markets, restaurants, and cafes, thereby increasing local tourism spending.
Kim Young-cheol, Director of the Culture, Tourism, and Sports Bureau, stated, "The Chrysanthemum Tour Pass provides tangible discounts for festival visitors while also directing tourist traffic to surrounding businesses. We hope many tourists enjoy the Chrysanthemum Festival along with Changwon's diverse culinary and tourism resources, invigorating the local economy."
