Experience an Unforgettable Summer at Inspire Arena

This summer, the Inspire Entertainment Resort, headquartered in Incheon, South Korea, is set to deliver an exhilarating series of events at the Inspire Arena. From large-scale music festivals and award ceremonies to thrilling esports roadshows, this vibrant lineup promises refreshing and exhilarating moments for all visitors. The resort offers a unique escape from urban hustle through special summer promotions, making it the only resort in Korea with an arena, providing unmatched entertainment experiences combined with a wide array of on-site facilities.

A Diverse Array of Music Events Awaits

The summer festivities kick off with the Weverse Con Festival taking place from May 31 to June 1. This much-anticipated music festival gathers global artists across generations and genres, featuring both indoor performances at the Inspire Arena and outdoor events at Discovery Park—creating a dynamic festival environment. Following this, the 34th Seoul Music Awards will be held on June 21, showcasing top K-POP idols who shone in 2024.

Highlighting the K-POP scene, the band ASTRO is set to perform their first solo concert in three years titled The 4th ASTROAD [Stargraphy] on June 7-8, drawing significant attention from fans worldwide. The concert coincides with the beginning of ATEEZ's new world tour, ATEEZ 2025 WORLD TOUR ‘IN YOUR FANTASY,’ starting July 5-6, which will traverse 12 cities in the United States and three in Japan.

A Connection Between Generations and Exciting Esports Events

In addition to music, various performance events for multi-generational audiences are slated for the summer. On August 2, singer Lee Seung-chul will grace the Inspire Arena once again with his concert “Orchest’rock2.” This will be followed by the project group Ho Yongbyul made up of ballad artists, including Ho Gak, Shin Yongjae, and Im Hanbyul, who will perform together on August 3, delivering beautiful harmonies in their concert The War of Vocalists II.

On the esports front, following last year's success with VALORANT Champions Seoul, the Inspire Arena will host 2025 LCK Roadshow ‘T1 HOMEGROUND’ from July 25-27. This highly anticipated event includes League of Legends matches by T1 and official matches for VALORANT VCT Pacific. After hosting the first official home match in LCK history last year, T1 promises an even grander scale of matches for esports fans this summer.

Unique Summer Getaway with Accommodation and Performances

Alongside the exciting events, Inspire is offering special promotions for accommodations and dining this summer. Families or couples planning vacations can take advantage of the Summer Hotel Package tailored to enhance their experience at the resort. Additionally, the resort’s six signature restaurants are running the “Summer Kids Eat Free” campaign, providing free kids' meals on weekdays (excluding weekends and holidays). More unique promotions will be introduced throughout the summer.
