I was supposed to go to attend this years Waterbomb Festival this year, but it was not possible. Now, I've been to many concerts in the past, and I attended the 2023 Waterbomb in Daegu and I have to say that it was worth it.


Let's check out some of the highlights from this year's festival so far!




Also, special guests Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman surprised the crowds at this year's Seoul event including K-drama's very own Cha Eun Woo!


Videos were posted throughout social media, which showed Hugh Jackman, being introduced as Wolverine as he held a water gun; the actor struck a pose as fans in the crowd sprayed water in his direction. "We love you! We love you Seoul," he said in one video, speaking to the audience as Waterbomb made a heart sign with his hands. The actors made the event more popular virally due to their followers on social media, especially during this time.

In regards to the ticket price for the 2024 festival, prices are around the 110,000 - 154,000 KRW mark, which is roughly 100 - 130 USD. Personally, I think that for a 540 minute show, the price is very reasonable, due the various artists that you are able to see perform, let alone being able to have fun with water guns and cool off in the summer heat. The ticket price is worth it in my opinion.


Let's check out that magic moment!



Of course, the Waterbomb Festival is so much more than watching your favorite performers. You are also able to have a water fight with your friends and other attendees, get involved with celebrity water fights since there are cannons on stage, and upgrade your ticket to a VIP table, where you can enjoy a side view of the stage and bar area, or even enjoy a variety of food from the food stalls. All these options at the event make it a stand-out date of the year, and an event not to be missed!


The weather during the Waterbomb Tour was also very hot and humid, especially in Daegu so many tickets sold out for the festival, more so than in other years. The amount of water that was used during the festival was a great way to cool down during the summer heat, and I have to say that it looked refreshing! I really think for the thousands of fans that attended this year's event, it was for sure worth it. For the artists and special guests, I can only imagine the feeling of performing to so many people at once, how amazing it must have truly felt.


I am definitely looking forward to 2025's Waterbomb Festival. Are you?
