Have a plan after the encore
- Show starts (Taiwan time)
- 17:00
- If it runs about three hours
- ends around 20:00
- Last trains from G17
- 00:05 → G01 Xindian · 00:52 → G19 Songshan
About 4 h 5 min to spare before the earliest last train. Station crowds after a big show eat into it.
Regular timetable, read 18 OCT 2026. Check the official timetable for your date ↗ Encores and delays move the finish. This is arithmetic from the start time, not a published end time. Transfers to other lines end earlier; check the last train on your own route.- Expect a crowd at G17 after the encore. Allow time between the final song and any intercity connection.
- Stay near G17 or along the Green Line for a simpler late return. Check the final train for your actual date.
Food after the encore
- Liaoning Street Night MarketNear G16 Nanjing Fuxing
Small, local and close to the arena. Stalls choose their own hours.
- Raohe Street Night MarketG19 Songshan · two stops east
One of Taipei’s best-known night markets. Most stalls close around midnight.
- Convenience storesEverywhere
7-Eleven and FamilyMart are open 24 hours and sell hot food.
