Friday evening, Seoul Plaza will transform into a vibrant marketplace, inviting shoppers to explore the offerings of 47 small businesses. The city's 2026 Small Business Day celebration will run from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., extending its hours by two hours compared to the previous year. This extension aims to cater to office workers and visitors who find it difficult to visit during daytime hours.
The event pays tribute to Small Business Day, celebrated on November 5 each year, under the theme "Better everyday lives created by small shops, Seoul as a city of quality living." Among the participating businesses are 15 that have received assistance from Seoul's startup and market development support programs, providing them with a platform to connect with new customers.
To encourage patronage, shoppers will be eligible for a 10 percent discount when purchasing event-exclusive items.
