Parking김천시문화예술회관Gimcheon Culture & Arts Center seats and parking: where to sit in the reopened 851-seat main hall and 186-seat small hallGimcheon Culture & Arts Center reopened on 26 June 2026 after a remodel with an 851-seat main hall (567 downstairs, 284 in the balcony) and a 186-seat small hall, plus parking for about 1,000 cars. In the main hall, pick Na block rows 5–9 or Ma block rows 10–12 just behind the cross aisle; in the small hall, centre Zone 2 rows C–F.
Parking양산문화예술회관양산문화예술회관 seat views and parking: how the 796-seat main hall dividesThe main hall at 양산문화예술회관 seats 796: 270 on floor 1, 230 on the mezzanine, 94 in the front balcony, 194 in the rear balcony and 8 wheelchair spaces. Mid-floor 1 in the centre block gives the best view. The small hall seats 164. Park beside the centre or at 남부동 877-1 (rates unpublished); there are no mobile tickets.
Parking함안문화예술회관Haman Arts Center Main Hall: How Many Seats? The 510-Seat Chart, Booking and ParkingThe Haman Arts Center main hall has 510 seats: 504 regular plus 6 wheelchair spaces, on a single floor from row A to row S with no balcony. Counting the official chart gives 148 left, 208 centre and 148 right, matching KOPIS exactly. Parking is free (250 spaces, per 2019 data), and the venue's own shows open to paid members first.
Parking군포문화예술회관Suri Hall vs Cheoljjuk Hall at Gunpo Culture & Arts Center: seat counts checked against the seat maps, plus parking and bookingSuri Hall at Gunpo Culture & Arts Center (군포문화예술회관) seats 1,142 over two levels, including 12 wheelchair spaces; Cheoljjuk Hall is a single-level 428-seat hall in the basement, including 6. The car park holds 322 cars and opens 08:00-22:00, but fills on show days, so arrive early or come by bus from Geumjeong Station.
ParkingDaegu Arts CenterDaegu Arts Center: Palgong Hall's Balcony Answer Is Section E, Rows 1–6 — and No Parking Rate Is Published AnywhereIn Palgong Hall at Daegu Arts Center (대구문화예술회관), the balcony seats that look straight down on the whole stage are section E, rows 1–6. The 430-seat balcony splits into D (136), E (158) and F (136); D and F run along the side walls at an angle. Parking is restricted to people attending a performance or exhibition, and the centre publishes neither a parking rate nor a space count. Non-member online booking was abolished on 23 March 2026. (Checked September 2026)
Parking장충체육관Jangchung Arena Seats and Parking: 48 of the 63 Bays Go to the PromoterOn a concert day you almost certainly cannot park at Jangchung Arena (장충체육관) in central Seoul. Of its 63 bays, 48 are block-booked by the event promoter, and the operator’s own parking page states that general vehicles are restricted during events. Exit 5 of Dongguk University Station on Subway Line 3 connects directly into the building, which makes the subway the only realistic answer. The arena seats 4,507, of which 1,324 are retractable — so zones change from show to show.
Getting there보령문화예술회관Boryeong Culture & Arts Center Grand Theater — Seat Views and How to Read the NumbersThe steadiest seats in the Grand Theater at Boryeong Culture & Arts Center are roughly 50 to 90 in centre block da on floor 1. Seat numbers do not restart on each row but run continuously from the front of a block to the back, so seat 11 in block da is the front row and 123 is the back. The booking capacity is 715: 571 on floor 1, 8 wheelchair spaces and 136 on floor 2.
Parking화성예술의전당Hwaseong Arts Center, Dongtan Art Hall: seats, parking and booking (September 2026)Dongtan Art Hall at Hwaseong Arts Center seats 1,450 — 981 on level 1 and 469 on level 2, including 15 wheelchair spaces — matching its KOPIS registration exactly. Booking through the venue's own site or on 1551-2313 carries no booking fee, and ticket collection opens 90 minutes before curtain, half an hour earlier than the foundation's other venues. Both on-site car parks are free but tight, and the venue recommends public transport.
Parking전남광주통합특별시 예술의전당 (구. 광주예술의전당)Gwangju Arts Center: seat views and parking for both theatres (September 2026)The Grand Theatre at Gwangju Arts Center seats 1,517 (1,102 on level 1, 415 on level 2) and the Small Theatre 464 — both matching their KOPIS registrations exactly. The furthest seat is 32m from the stage in the Grand Theatre and just 13m in the Small Theatre, so even level 2 and the back rows see well. There are 434 parking spaces, no rate is published officially, and a full Grand Theatre means 1,517 people arriving at once — allow 40 to 50 minutes.
Parking창원과학체험관Booking the 119 safety course at Changwon Science Center: reserve on the Safety Center site, fees, and the 89-space car parkThe 119 fire-safety course on the 3rd floor of 창원과학체험관 (Changwon Science Center) is booked on the separate 창원시민안전체험관 (Changwon Citizens' Safety Center) website, cwsafe119.or.kr, free of charge, from 30 days before the visit until 4 pm the day before. Check-in is at the Science Center's B1 information desk. Children born in 2020 or earlier may take part. Parking is 89 general spaces plus 4 accessible, 5 EV and 1 veteran space. Verified in September 2026 on both official sites.
Parking부산아시아드 경기장Five things to know before a concert at Busan Asiad Main Stadium: 53,769 seats, parking at 200 won per 10 minutes, and Line 3부산아시아드주경기장 (Busan Asiad Main Stadium) seats 53,769 (252 accessible) around an eight-lane athletics track, so even the lower tier sits a track-width from a concert stage; reviews favour the centre of the second tier for a full view. The car park normally runs 24 hours at 200 won per 10 minutes (first 10 minutes free, 5,000 won daily cap), but the official page allows parking to be restricted during events, so plan around Line 3 Sports Complex Station exit 9. Verified September 2026.
Parking국립중앙박물관 극장 용Theater Yong at the National Museum of Korea: 805 seats, and 4,000 won to parkTheater Yong, the hall inside the National Museum of Korea where its musicals run, seats 805 — 538 in the stalls (including eight wheelchair spaces) and 267 on the second floor. Both the National Museum Foundation’s own seating plan and the KOPIS facility record give that figure; the widely repeated 862 appears in neither. Parking costs a flat 4,000 won for the whole visit if you show a Theater Yong ticket. Checked September 2026.
