Taipei Arena Neighborhood Guide: After-Show Hangouts and Art Spaces Within Walking Distance
The Taipei Arena is at the intersection of Nanjing East Road and Dunhua North Road, right at Exit 2 of the Taipei Arena MRT station (台北小巨蛋站). Before the show, you can head south to the Taipei City Arts Promotion Office or north to check out galleries on Dunhua North Road and Fujin Street. After the show, there are bars and bistros across the street and in nearby alleys that stay open late, so you can wait for the crowds to disperse before heading home.
