A book-tasting visit to 台創祭

SUSU's festival image sets a green-haired diner before fish, pink tangyuan and a dish of zines. The fair borrows the Taiwanese outdoor banquet, 辦桌, for this year's theme. The creators bring the courses: original comics, illustrated publications and handmade work.

Begin at 見本工場, the sample-book area. Browse contributors' publications, then use the maker information on a book to find the booth selling it. There is no extra reading charge inside the ticketed fair. The organiser's online booth map switches between Saturday and Sunday; save a few people you want to meet.

Both days run 11:00–17:30, with onsite ticket sales ending at 17:00. Validate tickets in front of Warehouse 4. A day costs NT$250; the NT$450 two-ticket offer runs until 23:59 on October 30, for two people on one day or one person across both. Keep the wristband for same-day re-entry.

Make a half-day of it: start at 10:00 with the free AHA! textbook-design exhibition in the Taiwan Design Museum on the same campus, then enter PCF from 11:00. These are separate exhibitions. From Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall MRT, allow ten minutes for the roughly 530 m walk to the park, then follow signs to warehouses 3–5.
