The Seoul ADR Festival 2025 was successfully held from October 26 to 31, 2025, celebrating its 11th anniversary. Over the years, the Seoul ADR Festival has firmly established itself as a leading international arbitration event representing Asia, demonstrating remarkable growth in both scale and impact. This year’s festival brought together more than 700 arbitration practitioners, arbitrators, academics, and in-house counsel from over 40 countries. In addition, more than 60 institutions hosted over 40 side events, further enriching the program. As a premier gathering that draws the global arbitration community to the dynamic city of Seoul, we look forward to welcoming everyone again next year and so stay tuned!
