N Seoul Tower will host Namsan Wine Festa in Seoul on 17-18 and 24-25 October 2026. The festival will form the main programme at the tower during FALL in R.E.D. Festa, a seasonal event running from 12 October to 8 November 2026.
CJ Foodville, the operator, announced the programme on 31 August 2026. The tower is also known as Namsan Seoul Tower, and the event will take place in its plaza on Namsan.
Namsan Wine Festa brings four October dates to the tower
Namsan Wine Festa will run across four days, on 17-18 October and 24-25 October 2026. The organiser says the programme will combine tastings of more than 200 wines with food, music and views from the summit of Namsan.
Live jazz performances, a wine market, games and prize draws are planned for the event. The 2026 programme marks the ninth edition and introduces the name Namsan Wine Festa in place of the former Namsan Wine Fair.
FALL in R.E.D. Festa will begin on 12 October 2026 and continue until 8 November 2026. Alongside the wine event, the tower will host an Autumn Gourmet Road, with seasonal menus from food outlets in the complex. The organiser lists Korean snacks, pizza, burgers, desserts, French cuisine and Korean grill dishes among the participating food themes.
The festival is a public ticketed event rather than an invitation-only programme. The organiser's announcement says tickets include wine tastings, a tasting glass, food vouchers, access to the observatory and a food-and-beverage coupon pack. CJ Foodville's festival announcement gives the programme dates and venue.
N Seoul Tower places the festival above central Seoul
N Seoul Tower is a communication and observation tower on the summit of Namsan in central Seoul. The official Seoul travel guide places the visitor address at 105 Namsangongwon-gil in Yongsan-gu and identifies the tower as a daily attraction in the capital.
The tower's summit setting shapes the October programme: the wine festival will use the plaza while the wider seasonal event extends into food venues inside the complex. That links the festival's tastings and live music with the observation visit included in the announced ticket package.
The official guide lists access from Chungmuro Station on subway lines 3 and 4, followed by the Namsan Circular Bus to the N Seoul Tower stop. It also lists Dongguk University Station on line 3 as another subway connection. Seoul's official visitor guide provides the address, transport details and tower information.
Autumn Gourmet Road extends the programme to 8 November
Visitors who miss the four wine-festival dates can still encounter the broader FALL in R.E.D. Festa programme between 12 October and 8 November 2026. The Autumn Gourmet Road is scheduled throughout that period inside the tower's food-and-beverage venues.
The announced menu range gives the seasonal programme a broader focus than wine alone. It includes a snack outlet, a pizza restaurant, a burger venue, a dessert café, a French course restaurant and a Korean grill restaurant.
