INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOPS
To foster a more diverse and global perspective within the music industry, in addition to the forums, we have curated three special workshops where artists will step off the stage to share their personal working experiences. These artists will become the real-life storytellers, helping us all expand our horizons in the world of music.
The workshops will take place at the Frameless Stage (indoors). We are delighted to announce our esteemed lineup of workshop presenters, including the popular South Korean band ADG7, renowned Japanese singer Hitoto Yo, acclaimed Taiwanese indigenous singer Sangpuy, award-winning producer Tzu-lung Hung, and the globally recognized ethnic music ensemble Balaklava Blues from Canada and Ukraine.
