Please use designated seating and rest areas. * **Official Merchandise & Photo Spots:** Merch stands near Hall 10 lobby open at 10:00. Commemorative tour shirts and artist towels often sell out early on Day 1. --- ## Concurrent Events & Extreme Weekend Parking Notice * **Center 1 Overlap (MEGAZOO):** From November 20 to 22, [2026 MEGAZOO Ilsan Season 2](/en/events/megazoo-season2-2026-kintex/) fills Center 1 with tens of thousands of visitors bringing pets by car. KINTEX on-site parking will reach 100% capacity before 10:30 each morning. * **Take Rail Transit:** Avoid driving or hail taxis during morning and evening rush hours.
