In April 2025, the Taiwan Tourism Administration (TTA) hosted its highly anticipated “Waves of Wonderland” event at Westfield Century City in Los Angeles, marking a significant milestone in Taiwan’s tourism campaign. The event, which coincided with the first anniversary of TTA’s 3.0 brand relaunch, brought Taiwan’s rich cultural heritage and modern innovations to thousands of visitors. Featuring hands-on booths, live performances, and immersive experiences like traditional Taiwanese pinball and DIY sand art, the event showcased Taiwan’s unique appeal as a travel destination.
A key highlight was the #DanceToTaiwan challenge, hosted by China Airlines. Visitors participated by grooving to the official theme song and stood a chance to win round-trip flights to Taiwan. This social media-driven engagement amplified the event’s reach, reflecting the growing importance of digital marketing in tourism.
Taiwan’s commitment to sustainability was also emphasized, with eco-friendly destinations like Yehliu Geopark and Sicao Green Tunnel promoted as part of the island’s appeal. In addition, Taiwan’s increasing popularity among North American travelers was underscored by Vivian Lin, Director of the TTA’s Los Angeles office, who noted a surge in tourism from the region.
The event also highlighted Taiwan’s ongoing support for the LGBTQ+ community. The island’s participation in the 2025 LA Pride Parade, with a float celebrating diversity, reinforces its reputation as a progressive and inclusive destination.
To attract more visitors, the TTA introduced incentives like the “Taiwan the Lucky Land” program and the Taiwan PASS, offering discounts and exclusive deals to explore Taiwan’s hidden gems. These initiatives aim to make Taiwan more accessible and encourage repeat visits.
As Taiwan continues to build its global tourism presence, events like “Waves of Wonderland” serve as a dynamic blend of cultural celebration, sustainability, and inclusivity. For travelers seeking a destination that aligns with both environmental values and cultural richness, Taiwan presents an exciting opportunity.
