Kakao's mapping service, KakaoMap, will provide a digital map for the 'Oktoberfest Seoul 2026' event.
Kakao announced on the 11th that it has collaborated with Deutsche Oktoberfest Korea to offer a dedicated map of the 'Oktoberfest Seoul 2026' festival on KakaoMap.
'Oktoberfest Seoul 2026' is designed to allow attendees to experience the traditions and culture of Germany's iconic folk festival. The event will take place from September 12 to 21 at the Cultural Storage Base in Mapo-gu, Seoul.
This festival is the first in Korea to receive official approval from the city of Munich, Germany, and will feature ten German beer brands, including Paulaner and Kronbacher.
The festival-specific map on KakaoMap will provide essential information for attendees, including the layout of the venue, booth locations, menus, and facilities.
KakaoMap will also offer a community feature called 'On-Site Talk.' This function allows users to share real-time information and experiences related to the festival. Attendees can exchange information about booth wait times and the availability of popular menu items.
Users can also share reactions to major programs, such as live performances by authentic German bands, through On-Site Talk.
A KakaoMap representative stated, "The dedicated festival map is a service designed to help attendees easily access key information and enjoy the event more conveniently. We will continue to enhance our services in collaboration with various events to enrich users' experiences on-site."
