Grand Mint Festival, one of the country’s largest music festivals, on Friday shared its artist line-up for its October event at Olympic Park in Songpa District, southern Seoul.

A total of 32 teams will perform at the event scheduled for Oct. 16 to 17 and again for Oct. 23 to 24, including Daybreak, Nell, Urban Zakapa and 10cm.

Festival fans are especially excited about the line-up as the organizer had gathered recommendations in a prior event, and reflected such recommendations in the line-up. Lee Seung-yoon, a new, rising star that fans wanted to see in the festival, is one such fan recommendation.

The festival, which forwent its event last year, will check spectators for the coronavirus before they are allowed to enter. Visitors that are fully vaccinated or that carry a negative test result with them will be allowed to go through the gate faster.

Tickets will be available for purchase through Interpark, WeMakePrice and Yes24, and information updates will be released through the festival’s social media channels.
