Taipei City Multicultural Activities: Taipei Masskara Festival (Sep. 20)

The MassKara Festival is an annual festival held in Bacolod, Philippines. During the festival, it is customary to put on flamboyant masks and clothing to march in the parade. The smile on the mask is designed to spread positive energy. This year, Taipei City hosted the MassKara Festival for the first time. We hope residents of Taipei City, new immigrants and foreign workers came and joined us to share different cultures, and showed the passion, the energy, and the friendliness of Taipei City!
