Taoyuan to Taipei

Take the Airport MRT from Terminal 1 (A12) or Terminal 2 (A13) to Taipei Main Station (A1). Express trains make fewer stops than commuter trains. At Taipei Main, change to the Taipei Metro for your hotel or venue; each concert page names the line.

Use an EasyCard, or buy a single-journey ticket at the station.

If your airline flies to Kaohsiung, landing at Kaohsiung International Airport saves the train.

Landing late? Check that a THSR train south still connects. If not, stay the night near Taipei Main Station or the airport and take an early train.

  • You land after the last Airport MRT train. The Airport MRT and the THSR do not run overnight.
