Screenshots shared on social media allegedly showed far higher asking prices from resellers and proxy buyers. In the posts, front-row VIP seats were listed at up to NT$110,000, while other premium tickets were also marked up sharply. Fans reacted with disbelief and anger, with some mocking the prices and others saying the listings showed how serious scalping has become for major concerts.

Festival hours are set for 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, and 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Sunday. The city is encouraging visitors to use public transportation, with the site accessible from Weiwuying Station (衛武營站) on the Orange Line via Exit 6.

The conflict reportedly began over the feeding of stray animals. The court found that the accused had carried out the act described by prosecutors, but said prosecutors had not shown that the act was directed at a specific individual in a way that satisfied the “public insult” elements of the offense.

Drivers pressed for a fare review, arguing that Kaohsiung’s delayed-time meter remains out of step with other cities. According to Kaohsiung’s official taxi fare table, the meter adds NT$5 every 100 seconds when the speed falls below 5 kilometers per hour. TVBS noted that Taipei uses NT$5 every 60 seconds, and that Kaohsiung drivers say the gap matters more now that concerts, tourism and congestion often make trips slower and more labor-intensive.

Police said the lychee harvest period is short and the fruit’s high value makes it a common target for thieves. The Renwu precinct said it has also secretly installed mobile surveillance cameras along key access roads, farm roads and blind spots near orchards, with 24-hour recording to help gather evidence. Drones are being used for aerial patrols in Dashu’s hillier areas, where terrain and limited visibility make traditional patrols less effective.

Under Taiwan’s Road Traffic Management and Penalty Act, drivers can be fined for holding, lighting, or smoking a cigarette while on the road if the behavior affects traffic safety. The rule has been in effect since at least July 1, 2019, and the fine was subsequently increased from NT$600 to NT$1,200 following a legislative amendment in late 2025.

The city said additional pedestrian-environment improvement projects are also underway nearby on Jiouru 1st Road (九如一路) in Sanmin District (三民區) and Wumiao Road (武廟路) in Lingya District.

The Kaohsiung show is also being billed as the first Asian stop on the new tour. Air Supply recently released “A Matter of Time,” their first new album in 16 years, and said songs from the record would be included in the tour.

Chen says the city should study the possibility of reconnecting the old rail bridges on both the north and south sides of the area. Chen said the Public Works Bureau’s Parks Office had been asked to evaluate the engineering requirements and cost of such a project.
