Selected session Sun, 25 Oct 2026, 18:00 GMT+8 (Taiwan time) · Taipei Arena · 台北小巨蛋

This session’s date has passed. The page is kept for reference; there is no record here of whether the show went ahead as planned.

Typhoon: the 24 Oct show is cancelled. KHAM’s cancellation notice of 23 Oct says that, because Taipei City declared Sat 24 Oct a day off from work and school, the show is cancelled with no refund fee, and refund requests must reach KHAM by Fri 30 Oct 2026; credit-card buyers do not need to apply, because KHAM refunds the card (details in the Refunds card for 24 Oct). If you were going on 24 Oct, the hotel dates, calendar entry and after-show plan on this page no longer apply. The 25 Oct show: the cancellation notice does not mention it. KHAM’s earlier notice of 22 Oct, which is no longer on its news page, said it was going ahead for now, and the Taipei Arena listing, updated on 23 Oct at 20:34, still lists it at 18:00 with doors at 16:30. Times may be adjusted as the typhoon moves, so check KHAM’s news page and the Taipei Arena listing before you set out. Getting there on the 25 Oct show day: Taipei Metro’s press release of 24 Oct (page updated 19:34, read on 24 Oct 2026 at 23:50 Taiwan time) says all Metro lines run normally on Sun 25 Oct and may add extra trains when crowds need them; it is about transport only and is not the organiser’s word on the show. Times are from the Taipei Arena listing and KHAM’s official entry guide (both nights): KHAM ticket service 16:00–18:30, doors 16:30, show 18:00, about 150 minutes, expected finish around 20:30; times may change on the day. Tickets are on KHAM, one page per night. Eight acts including ATEEZ, King & Prince and NCT WISH; hosted by Sho Sakurai. The line-up differs by night. NT$800–6,280.
