2026 Kaohsiung Music Center Christmas Party
The Harbor Christmas Tree returns for the fifth anniversary of Kaohsiung Music Center, known locally as Gaoliu, appearing vibrantly in the venue’s signature pink colors. Starting on 11/14, it will light up the night sky for more than 50 days, ushering in the winter season and turning the front-row sea view into the most romantic check-in spot.
A 17-Meter Pink Gou Tree
The centerpiece of this year’s celebration is a 17-meter giant “Pink Gou” TREE, appearing in a dreamy posture that is both “pink” and “cute” (gou zui). Starting at 5:30 PM, a light-and-music show runs every 30 minutes, with each 3-minute sequence reflected on the shimmering waves of the bay. The final session takes place at 22:30, creating a harbor-side Christmas view that changes as day turns to night.
Carousel, Music, and Markets
A romantic carousel has been added for the season, offering a warm and dreamy fairy-tale backdrop under the harbor night sky. Friendly reminder: the Christmas decorations are for photography only and cannot be ridden.
Live music spans 3 major theme stages, with 15 groups of musicians and singers taking turns to deliver a continuous stream of diverse musical styles. The Christmas market also features super cute reindeer shapes, so visitors can spend the holiday surrounded by the sea breeze and market delicacies.
The Harbor Christmas Party · Golden Light Candy Market brings selected brand markets to the waterfront, along with interactive street performances and flash-mob acts every Saturday and Sunday. It is a warm way to spend parent-child time together.
