About
Want to enjoy the flavors of the front sea of Gijang? Visit the Gijang Anchovy Festival that offers the freshness of Gijang anchovy. In the spring, you can try the plump seasonal Gijang anchovy that has an excellent chewiness as a sweet and sour raw fish salad, covered in a thin and savory batter and fried, a nice soup boiled with bean paste sauce, and dried radish greens. Challenge yourself to the popular barehand fish-catching program, and lose track of time as you watch the flying board at the festival. Participate in the surprise auction to purchase Gijang anchovy for an affordable price. *Gijang Anchovy Festival* 2026. 04. 24. ~ 04. 26.
