This year’s “Spring Scream Music Festival” will be held on April 4–5 at Kenting Hengchun Airport, featuring a stellar lineup including Mayday and S.H.E. The early-bird discounted tickets sold out quickly, and accommodations in Kenting — which are already quite popular on weekends — are now in extremely high demand. Domestic travel operators have simultaneously introduced a variety of package deals, ranging from all-inclusive options covering tickets, lodging, and transport, to the returning “Rock Bus All-Nighter.” Register before February 28 to receive a bonus limited-edition official poster.

Lion Travel Vice President You Guozhen noted that not only do Taiwanese music fans travel abroad to attend international music festivals, but Taiwan’s annual Spring Scream Music Festival in Kenting also attracts numerous local and international fans. Based on recent years’ experience, an increasing number of Hong Kong and Macau fans have joined the ticket rush, with some even planning their Taiwan trips around the Spring Scream. This year’s lineup is arguably the most eye-catching yet, featuring rock legends Mayday, as well as an exciting showdown between Tian Fu Zhen and S.H.E, which is sure to draw even more fans. Lion Travel has also launched a range of Spring Scream packages, including ticket purchases, hotel bookings, high-speed rail flexible travel options, and the Rock Bus All-Nighter. These options come with early-bird ticket discounts as well as savings on lodging or transportation, making them more cost-effective than booking everything individually.
The ever-popular “Rock Bus All-Nighter,” launched annually, departs from Taipei Main Station at 6:40 AM, picking up passengers along the way in Taoyuan-Zhubei, Taichung, Changhua, and Tainan, and is expected to arrive in Kenting at 2:30 PM to head straight to the performance venue. After the final encore, the bus returns to Taipei, arriving at around 6:00 AM the next morning. This year, the discount is even better than before. In addition to the early-bird Spring Scream ticket price, the package includes guide and driver gratuities. Originally priced at NT$2,999, it’s now slashed to just NT$2,549 — a full 20% off. Those who register for the “Rock Bus All-Nighter” before February 28 will also receive a limited-edition official Spring Scream poster, while supplies last. For those who prefer a less hectic schedule, there are also lodging-plus-ticket packages available, with the main event ticket and hotel stay starting from just NT$5,740 at nearby hotels.
