The 2025 Busan International Rock Festival is set to ignite Samnak Ecological Park from Sept. 26 to 28, bringing three days of pure rock energy to the Nakdonggang River Estuary. As Korea’s longest-running rock festival, it has become a landmark event where music lovers gather to experience world-class performances in a stunning riverside setting.
This year’s lineup is stacked with global icons and homegrown legends. Britpop pioneers Suede and American alt-rock giants The Smashing Pumpkins headline the bill, promising unforgettable live sets. They’ll be joined by the genre-bending pop star Mika, Japan’s explosive kawaii metal trio Babymetal, and Korean rock powerhouses Jaurim and Guckkasten.
In addition, global stars CNBLUE will deliver their signature high-energy sound led by Busan-born frontman Yong-hwa Jung, who has often expressed love for his hometown.
On the closing day, singer-songwriter Seung-yoon Lee takes the stage to woo audiences with his lyrical depth and cross-genre versatility.
With a lineup this dynamic, Busan is ready to rock like never before.
