Megaport Festival
Megaport is a music festival located in the southern Taiwanese city, Kaohsiung. Since the inaugural edition in 2006, the event has become the biggest rock festival in Taiwan from 20 artists between three stages to over 100 artists throughout ten stages. The stage area expands from the port-side mega plaza to the Great Harbor Bridge, the pier warehouses, rooftops, and yachts, creating a unique listening experience through these various venues.
The lineup includes artists of indie, rock, pop, hip-hop, punk, alternative, and many different kinds of genres. Special projects feature iconic celebrities as special guests for band performances, and crossover film stars or influencers serve as DJs to play music and give talk shows on yachts. Offering a variety of performing styles and eclectic program content, Megaport has become youngsters’ favorite music event in Taiwan. The number of ticket purchases has come up to 40,000 last year, making it an instant sold-out event two years in a row. Plus the surrounding free activities brought the event up to 100,000 people to participate.
