History
The festival has an unfortunate memory of its predecessor, in 1999 Tri-port Festival that was intended to take place at Song-do which used to be a festival area until 2009. The expected line-up of Tri-port Festival included Deep Purple, Rage Against the Machine, Dream Theater, The Prodigy and more. But unfortunately, the event was cancelled due to extreme weather condition. The festival has revived in 2006 with its current name, Pentaport, and is successfully being continued since then.
