Background of the event<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

"Taiwan Festival\u2122" is a unique Taiwanese event that began in 2014 with a one-tatami mat stage and the love of each individual for Taiwan<\/strong> . Since 2017, attendance has continued to grow, exceeding 250,000 in 2019, and finally reaching a cumulative attendance of 1 million, making it a pioneer in Taiwanese events<\/strong> .
\n In line with the "SDGs" (Sustainable Development Goals) that the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has been promoting since 2024, which focus on waste reduction and environmental considerations, the Taiwan Festival\u2122 will also support Tokyo by adopting reusable cups that can be used, washed, and reused<\/strong> !<\/p>\n

The theme for 2026 is "\u56cd (Double Happiness)," a celebratory Taiwanese wedding tradition.<\/strong><\/span> <\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In addition to engagement customs that differ from those in Japan, Taiwan also has interesting traditional wedding ceremonies that are unique to Taiwan. Although Western-style dresses are now mainstream, the dazzling traditional costumes remain very popular among younger generations, much like cosplay. The 2026 Taiwan Festival\u2122 will showcase Taiwan by illuminating the venue in red, with the theme of Taiwan's wedding culture, "\u56cd (Double Happiness)."<\/strong><\/p>\n
