Introduction to the festival 

Chuncheon International Mime Festival 2019 is the first private-led performing arts festival to mark its 30th anniversary. Beyond the genre of mime, it is a performing arts festival based on "body, movement and image," and is a new type of festival combining arts (performance) and festivals (jamming). In late May every year, the festival is held throughout Chuncheon City, including the Jungang-ro, Chuncheon Songam Sports Town and Ilsong Art Hall of Hallym University.

In 2019, Chuncheon International Mime Festival celebrates its 30th anniversary. It will build a new "city of festivals" by combining the festival's technical skills with mime’s unique empathy, based on Chuncheon's cultural resources.

The goal that Chuncheon International Mime Festival pursues is a festival that everyone makes together. Every year, the festival is being created with some 250 volunteers, 700 artists and a visiting citizen audience, as well as staff members of the Chuncheon Mime Festival
