The Pohang International Fireworks Festival, a representative cultural tourism festival, is held every year in Pohang, the 'City of Fire and Light'. The Pohang International Fireworks Festival began in 2004 with a fireworks show commemorating Pohang Citizens' Day, themed around the images of 'light' symbolizing Pohang as a global steel city and 'fire' symbolizing a hot blast furnace. Since then, it has expanded into an international-scale festival, with famous overseas fireworks teams participating annually. The festival content has also evolved from a simple 'fireworks'-centric event to a diverse festival of harmony that integrates industrial and cultural elements, such as produced performances and light parades.
