Prioritize 左營 (Zuoying) or World Games Station areas.
When Kaohsiung books up, try 台南 (Tainan) hotels + HSR commute as backup.
Getting home after the concert
Kaohsiung MRT Red Line, World Games Station. Taipei high-speed rail (HSR) 1.5–2h option.
🧭 Local travel essentials
Getting around
Kaohsiung MRT covers the Red, Orange, and Fantasy lines, plus city buses and LRT. Cards: grab an EasyCard (悠遊卡) or iPASS — most convenience stores take them. Kaohsiung National Stadium is right above World Games Stadium (世運主場館) station.

Late-night transit
MRT last trains around midnight. Grab a taxi or Uber (Taiwan-based) after the show. Stadium's on the edge—expect post-show crowds. Call ahead if you can.
Payment
Downtown cards work fine, but night markets and street stalls run on cash. EasyCard and iPASS work at convenience stores and smaller purchases. QR apps (LINE Pay, etc.) spreading.
Currency & exchange
Taiwan dollar (TWD, NT$). Bring cash for night markets and street vendors. Exchange at the airport, in town, or use convenience-store ATMs.
Language
Traditional Chinese and Taiwanese. English less common than in Taipei; MRT signs show English.
