2026여수세계박람회조직위원회는 24일 김민석 국무총리가 전날 섬박람회 주행사장인 돌산 진모지구를 둘러보며 성공 개최를 위한 다양한 의견을 나눴다고 밝혔다.
특히 조직위 측은 주행사장이 돌산 진모지구로 결정된 것은 지난 2020년 섬박람회 국제행사 신청 당시 시민과 여러 전문가 의견을 수렴해 이뤄진 것이라고 설명했다.
섬박람회 기본계획 수립 당시 엑스포장은 박람회를 치르기에는 ▲전시공간이 협소하고 ▲전시관이 70% 이상 임대되어 시설 활용이 용이하지 않았고 ▲시설이 노후되어 리모델링에 많은 비용이 소요될 것으로 파악됐다.
반면 돌산(국내 10번째 큰 섬) 진모지구는 ▲섬이라는 상징성 ▲시유지로써 부지 확보 용이 및 박람회 콘셉트에 맞는 전시공간 배치 원활 ▲관광 활성화와 지역발전 등 사후활용 측면에서 장점이 있었다.
섬박람회 전시시설은 8개 전시관으로 구성된다. 전시관별 규모가 최소 1천800㎡에서 최대 2천100㎡가 필요했다. 섬박람회 랜드마크인 주제섬 1천600㎡, 해양생태섬·미래섬·문화섬 3개 전시관은 1천800㎡, 국제교류섬은 2천100㎡로 조성된다.
엑스포장은 4동의 전시관, 3개의 행사장, 16개의 세미나실 및 소회의실이 있는데, 전시관은 441㎡ ~ 1천240㎡, 행사장은 546~1천180㎡로 각종 공연이나 회의가 이뤄지는 공간이다.
그 외 200㎡ 이내 13개의 세미나실과 회의실은 소규모 회의가 개최되는 공간으로 섬박람회를 개최하기에는 전시공간이 협소한 것으로 분석했다.
이에따라 섬박람회 주행사장은 돌산 진모지구로 엑스포장은 기존 시설을 활용한 연계 프로그램을 운영하는 부행사장으로 결정됐다.
조직위원회 관계자는 "행사장 조성을 오는 7월까지 완료하고 콘텐츠 보강, 섬과연계 관광 프로그램 운영, 도서지역 환경정비, 손님맞이 준비 등 분야별로 꼼꼼히 챙겨 성공적인 박람회를 개최하는데 최선을 다하겠다"고 밝혔다.

The Organizing Committee for the 2026 Yeosu World Expo announced on the 24th that Prime Minister Kim Min-suk toured the Jinmo District in Dolsan, the main venue for the Island Expo, the previous day and exchanged various opinions regarding its successful hosting.
The Organizing Committee explained that the decision to designate the Jinmo District in Dolsan as the main venue was made after gathering opinions from citizens and various experts during the application process for the 2020 Island Expo international event.
At the time the basic plan for the Island Expo was established, it was determined that the existing Expo site was unsuitable for hosting the event due to: ▲ limited exhibition space; ▲ difficulty in utilizing facilities as over 70% of the exhibition halls were leased; and ▲ significant costs for remodeling were anticipated due to the aging facilities.
On the other hand, the Jinmo District in Dolsan (Korea's 10th largest island) had advantages in terms of post-event utilization, such as ▲ the symbolism of being an island; ▲ ease of securing the site as municipal land and smooth arrangement of exhibition spaces aligned with the Expo concept; and ▲ tourism revitalization and regional development.
The Island Expo exhibition facilities will consist of eight exhibition halls. Each exhibition hall required a size ranging from a minimum of 1,800㎡ to a maximum of 2,100㎡.
The Theme Island, the landmark of the Island Expo, will be constructed at 1,600㎡; the three exhibition halls for the Marine Ecosystem Island, Future Island, and Culture Island will each be 1,800㎡; and the International Exchange Island will be 2,100㎡.
The Expo site consists of four exhibition halls, three event halls, and 16 seminar and small meeting rooms. The exhibition halls range from 441㎡ to 1,240㎡, while the event halls range from 546㎡ to 1,180㎡, serving as spaces for various performances and conferences.
Additionally, the 13 seminar and meeting rooms, each under 200㎡, are spaces for small-scale meetings; analysis indicated that the exhibition space was too small to host the Island Expo.
Accordingly, the Jinmo District in Dolsan was designated as the main venue for the Island Expo, while the Expo site was decided to serve as a secondary venue for operating integrated programs utilizing existing facilities.
An official from the organizing committee stated that they will complete the construction of the venue by this coming July and do their best to hold a successful expo by meticulously overseeing various areas, such as reinforcing content, operating tourism programs linked to the islands, cleaning up the environment of island areas, and preparing to welcome guests.
