The Bow That Connects the World: Making New History in Ulsan

The global archery festival begins – tradition and honor come alive

A warm welcome to all of you joining us at the 2026 KOREA Ulsan World Traditional Archery Championship. The moment you draw your bow and face the target, hearts unite as one, beyond borders and languages. This championship brings together traditional archers from around the world in Ulsan. It is a meaningful festival where they display the skills they have honed and share the traditions and spirit of archery. Traditional archery is more than a sport of hitting a target. It is a discipline of self-control and composure, in which each arrow is released with care and sincerity. We hope this championship carries the value and beauty of traditional archery further across the world, together with archers from every nation. Athletes from different countries will face the same target in friendly competition, and the friendship and respect they share along the way will become a new chapter in the history of archery, written in Ulsan. We hope the 2026 KOREA Ulsan World Traditional Archery Championship will be a place of harmony for archers around the world, and a special time that carries the value of tradition into the future.
We sincerely support the passion and spirit of every archer who has come to Ulsan. We look forward to sharing with you the beautiful moments your bowstrings will create.
