Where to eat in June: Port Village Busan 2026
Port Village Busan 2026 will take place from June 4 to 21 at North Port Pier 1. The festival will run for 12 days, on Thursdays through Sundays, during the event period.
Port Village Busan is a food festival featuring the city’s favorite restaurants, bakeries and cafes. Around 100 food and beverage brands will be on hand to satisfy visitors.
A major highlight is the Nopo & Hipo project, an initiative driven by Beyond B-Star. This project connects Busan’s long-established restaurants, known as “nopo” in Korean, with contemporary local brands. These collaborations reinterpret regional flavors with a modern twist.
The participating “nopo” restaurants include Naeho Naengmyeon (cold noodles), Deokhwa Myeongran (pollack roe), Sinbalwon (dumplings), Amisan (Chinese cuisine) and Oksuk Palbok Tongdak (fried chicken).
The contemporary restaurants include Zeese (pork cutlet), People Works (Mexican cuisine), Cor Pasta Bar (Italian cuisine), Flying Dragon (American Chinese cuisine), Doshi Crab (steamed crab), and Yakitori Haegong (chicken skewers).
Celebrity chef Leo Kang consulted the restaurants on their collaborative dishes.
Port Village Busan will also feature a crafts market and fun activities like an hourly bubble party and a playground themed like an underwater village.
An event map integrated with KakaoMap offers real-time updates on participating brands, amenities, programs and visitor routes.
While general admission is free, visitors can purchase the limited-edition Aqua Pass via the Food Travel: Foovel app. Aqua Pass users get fast-track entry and a pre-loaded voucher to use inside the venue.
