The Ssamzie Sound Festival is the center of independent culture and renowned as
a gateway for new bands entering the music industry.
The Ssamzie Sound Festival is a large-scale performance program that aims to discover
the best songwriters and gives new musicians an opportunity to showcase and promote
their own experimental and unique music to the public. Although the performances
are divided into three major categories (namely, Hidden Masters, Active Masters
and Overseas Masters), the Festival is especially focused on discovering previously
unknown musicians through its Hidden Masters section.
The Ssamzie Sound Festival, which started as part of the Ssamzie Art Project,
was first held in 1999 and is now in its eighth opening. As the largest and
oldest historical music festival, it is now attracting 30,000 audiences every
year and has become established as an important Korean festival.
The Ssamzie Sound Festival, brimming with a new slogan and experimental spirit,
is a festival of freedom and passion performed in the center of Seoul.
Its unique concept and visuals certainly distinguish it from other festivals.
Its achievements in terms of groundbreaking forms and the discovery of spectacular
performers not limited to rock music artists, have become the benchmark for
other festivals. In the future, it will further diversify cultural standards
and serve as a medium through which people can easily approach an otherwise
inaccessible artistic space.
The longest-running domestic festival! Not a one-time event but "the present
and future of Korean music"
The Festival features a well-designed stage that harmonizes international and
traditional Korean elements, past and present, visual and auditory, and artists
and the public together in order to make more musicians and people feel and
experience the spirit of independent and experimental music.
As the foremost gateway for new musicians, the experimental spirit of the Ssamzie
Sound Festival will continue
With the goal of finding superior songwriters, the yearly Festival has been
an instrument for the discovery of new, experimental and unique musicians, and
also has been helping these artists extensively promote their music to the public.
The competition of the century where superior talents perform
From new, undiscovered talents, to established musicians, to internationally
renowned music artists, the Festival provides a musical connection for various
artists and prepares a field for them to have a consensus.
A unique festival created together by both the audience and the musician
The Festival is not only about various performances but also about delightful
foods and interesting things to see. It realizes a complete cultural festival
focused on the public and their participation, fully harmonizing the audience
and the artists.
The Ssamzie Sound Festival is not a simple rock festival. It is a festival
that forms a special consensus between musicians and the audience mediated by
music in various genres. With delightful music performed on the best possible
stage, it is a novel cultural festival that opens the minds of music lovers!
Now, experience something new!
