TAIWANfest Opening Event: When the Mountains Sing

When the mountains sing—They sing in their mother tongues, crossing generations and the oceans to resonate with you.

2026 TAIWANfest presents a night of music featuring award-winning music groups from Taiwan. Nanwang Sisters will share songs from the Pinuyumayan tribe and a legacy for Taiwanese Indigenous music groups to shine on stage. ZiXuan & Slow Train fuse their mother tongue into contemporary music styles, where elders and youth alike can experience Hakka with a “new soul”. 

Don’t miss out on a performance that bridges cultures and generations. This is the sound of Formosa. Learn more at vancouvertaiwanfest.ca.
