About this venue
Kaohsiung National Stadium stands out as one of the most striking sports venues in Taiwan, combining contemporary architecture, large-scale capacity, and a highly recognizable visual identity. Designed with a dynamic, almost spiral form, the stadium has a distinctive character, while its capacity of around 55,000 seats confirms its role as a stage for major sporting fixtures and large live events. Because of that, it feels not only functional, but also representative, a venue that elevates the profile of every event it hosts.
Inside, the stadium is planned to deliver clear sightlines and a strong sense of occasion, whether you are attending a football match, a concert, or a major public gathering. Visitors appreciate the open layout, effective sound projection, generous circulation areas, and modern spectator experience, all of which make time spent on-site more comfortable before the event and throughout the programme. This layout especially suits guests who want the scale of a major stadium without the heavy feel of a closed arena.
The venue is located at Shiyun Blvd 100, B1, Zuoying, Kaohsiung City, Taiwan. Reaching the entrance is straightforward thanks to the stadium’s broad access areas and the practical approach around the venue, while World Games Station is within easy walking distance for the final part of the journey.

About the city
Kaohsiung City, one of the most important urban centers in southern Taiwan, has established itself as an attractive destination for concerts, sporting events, and major public gatherings. The city combines the energy of a modern port, a vibrant cultural scene, and a more relaxed coastal rhythm, which makes it appealing both to visitors arriving solely for an event and to those who want to extend their stay. Thanks to its wide selection of arenas, open-air spaces, and multifunctional venues, Kaohsiung City offers the right setting for varied experiences, from large-scale spectacles to evening programs by the sea and the city skyline.
A major strength of the city is its clear and efficient transport network. Visitors can rely on the Kaohsiung Metro, including the Red Line and Orange Line, as well as the Kaohsiung Light Rail, which connects many key urban areas and makes it easy to reach arenas, waterfront districts, and neighborhoods with a rich range of attractions. For arrivals from other parts of the island, Zuoying Station for Taiwan High Speed Rail and Kaohsiung Main Station for conventional rail connections are especially important, while Kaohsiung International Airport is directly linked to the metro network, making transfers to the city center and major event locations highly practical. This strong connectivity means less stress before and after an event, whether you use public transport or combine train, metro, and taxi.
A stay in the city can easily become a complete travel experience. Before or after a concert or match, you can stroll along the Love River, explore the creative atmosphere of The Pier-2 Art Center, or head toward the scenic area of Lotus Pond and the old part of Zuoying. Visitors who enjoy a maritime atmosphere can also add a short ferry trip to Cijin, where the city’s energy meets a more relaxed coastal setting. It is precisely this combination of easy logistics, urban dynamism, and added attractions that makes Kaohsiung City a very rewarding choice for anyone who wants to combine an event with a quality city break.
