To be a global festival, there are programs for Suwon locals and tourists from home and abroad.

There's a history quiz competition for elementary school students, while 100 seniors selected from the public will be treated to traditional cuisine and performance, imitating the filial piety of King Jeongjo.

A reenactment of a 50 kilometer procession departing from Gyeongbokgung Palace to Suwon Fortress and eventually to the Yungneung Royal Tomb in Hwaseong will be jointly organized by the cities of Seoul, Suwon and Hwaseong.

After the festival, a huge mural will be drawn by citizens and tourists.
