Water Shows and Safari Adventures After Dark

Everland's 'Summer Night Safari,' which has been offered since June 12, is receiving a positive response from customers as a unique summer night experience program.

Samsung C&T Resort Division's Everland announced on June 22 that approximately 30,000 customers have experienced the Summer Night Safari over the past ten days, with the program running every evening after 6 p.m. This trend appears to be driven by customers seeking places to visit during the cooler evening hours, as the early summer heat has arrived.

While Everland has traditionally presented the Night Safari primarily during the autumn season, this year, the earlier start in early summer reflects the growing demand among customers for nighttime experiences that can be enjoyed out of the sun.

Another factor behind its popularity is the opportunity to observe big cats and other wild animals, which become more active at night, up close.

The Night Safari is an animal exploration program held in Safari World after sunset, where visitors can closely observe lions, tigers, brown bears, and other wild animals as they become active.

Because these animals are naturally more active at night, visitors can experience a different level of immersion, watching their dynamic and wild behavior that contrasts with their daytime demeanor.

Especially notable this year, Safari World underwent a renewal this spring, with each enclosure now themed after actual habitats such as the savanna, predator forest, and northern woods, further enhancing the atmosphere of the Night Safari.

Unlike previous years, this year's Night Safari is being offered free of charge, allowing customers to participate without financial burden and create special summer night memories, which has also contributed to its popularity.

Meanwhile, Everland's summer festival, 'Water Festival,' which opened on June 19, is in full swing. Under the main concept of 'Splash Day & Night,' the all-day summer festival runs until August 30, offering cool water activities during the day and nighttime experiences such as the Night Safari, performances, and garden events in the evening.

During the festival, a variety of water-themed attractions are available during the daytime, including the new 830-square-meter multi-purpose water play zone 'Water PangPang Adventure,' a large-scale water show, and various water attractions.

In the evenings, a wide array of summer night entertainment awaits, from the Night Safari and the 'Summer Glow Garden'—decorated with white and blue summer flowers and lights—to nighttime parades and fireworks displays.

Notably, starting in mid-July, Everland will also hold the DJing show 'BamBam Summer Night,' which combines K-pop, EDM, and water cannons, as well as the 'Midsummer Night Firefly Experience,' where visitors can closely observe fireflies that are rarely seen in the city.
