The Taiwanese calendar is dotted with myriad festivals and holidays, and participating in them may prove to be some of your most memorable Taiwan experiences[1].
Taiwan’s festivals include traditional and modern, ones originating in ancient China and the West, aboriginal festivals, farm & temple fairs, art and music festivals–in many ways, Taiwan has got the best of all worlds covered.
While some festivals in Taiwan have a fixed date on the Gregorian calendar, most are tied to the traditional Chinese calendar, often called the “lunar calendar”, although technically it is a lunisolar calendar.
Below I’m going to introduce dozens the best festivals in Taiwan, many of which I have personally attended. I hope this helps you decide when the best time to visit Taiwan is[2], and for planning your Taiwan trip[3].
