Busan Metropolitan City (Mayor Park Heong-joon) announced that regular tickets for the 2025 “Seven Bridges Tour: Riding in Busan” (hereinafter referred to as “Seven Bridges Tour”), scheduled to take place on September 21, will go on sale starting at 2:00 p.m. on July 22.
The “Seven Bridges Tour” is the nation’s only cycling event that runs across sea bridges in the heart of a city. The course is circular and connects four sea bridges, two underground passages, and one tunnel, including the famous Gwangan Bridge.
Participants must be at least 19 years of age (born on or before September 21, 2006) and capable of riding at an average speed of 25 km/h or more. For safety reasons, electric-powered bicycles and bicycles without brakes are not permitted.
The course is divided into two levels of difficulty:
●The “77 Course” (77 kilometers), which turns around at the Macdo Ecological Park, and
●The “33 Course” (33 kilometers), which turns around at the entrance of the Cheonma Tunnel.
The 77 Course, in particular, includes the spiral ramp section of the Busanhangdaegyo Bridge, known for its dizzying height, and is drawing high expectations from participants.
Participation fees are as follows:
●Regular ticket: KRW 100,000
●Group ticket (30 or more people): KRW 80,000 (20% discount, limited to 500 tickets)
Notably, early bird tickets that went on sale yesterday (July 16) sold out within one minute, highlighting the strong interest in the event.
Each person may purchase up to 10 tickets. Reflecting the common practice of cycling clubs participating as groups, a special 20% group discount is available for groups of 30 or more. This group discount is limited to 500 tickets and may sell out early, so prior confirmation is recommended.
All participants will receive high-quality commemorative gifts, a finisher’s medal, a bib number, and a timing chip.
