With the rallying call "TAIPEI IN VIBES", the second TRENDY TAIPEI city campaign runs from 22 August to 6 September 2026. Taipei City Government (Culture, Economic Development and Information departments) and Taipei Music Center link 14 programme series — concerts, industry forums, MRT and street takeovers — across Taipei Music Center, Songshan Cultural and Creative Park, Xinbeitou Historic Station, MOCA Taipei, Treasure Hill, Taipei Cinema Park, Taipei Arena and neighbourhood stages. Headline ticketed days are JAM JAM ASIA and the Taipei Music Expo at the Music Center at the end of August. TRENDY TALKS, the industry forum, is scheduled for 5–6 September at Taipei Dome Showtime Cinemas. Last year's first edition drew more than 130,000 visits; this year the programme is designed as a walkable city circuit rather than a single-site festival. Use the Music Center as the hub (MRT Kunyang, Blue line), then hop to Songshan Cultural Park and Xinyi for daytime programme. Outdoor and neighbourhood events are generally free; arena and festival stages are ticketed separately.
