Taipei Arts Festival is one of the city government’s most important cultural-related policies. The festival is co-organized by Taipei City’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Taipei Culture Foundation to encourage young artists to exercise their creativity and talents.
It also serves as a platform for sharing resources and enhancing collaboration among artists and artistic groups.
First launched in 1999, the annual festival has regularly provided unique experience to citizens with a variety of artistic performances and exhibitions, bringing them great memories.
In 2008, Taipei Arts Festival had a brand new start, revamping itself under the themes of creativity and variety. Under the new slogan “Bravo Only,” the festival has introduced local and international shows to Taipei, highlighting the festival’s modernity and creativity.
Now the Taipei Arts Festival is not only a highly-anticipated annual art fest but also an important platform to cultivate new talents and bring new energy to local cultural creative industry.
It is a well-known brand both in Taiwan and in the global stage where arts community is eager to participate year after year.
The annual event also boosted Taipei’s tourism business and put the city under international spotlight.
