Under the theme "Sweet Kingdom," the 2026 Taichung International Flower Carpet Festival joins hands with Sanrio characters to present the grandest floral extravaganza in the event's history. Blending Taichung’s vibrant dessert culture with creative floral designs, the event transforms the city's unique charm into colorful flower landscapes, inviting travelers into an imaginative, dreamlike realm.
Centering around seven beloved Sanrio characters, the park features seven main themed zones that seamlessly integrate character traits, floral landscapes, and interactive experiences. This year’s centerpiece is a towering 19-meter main flower carpet—the tallest ever built. Designed with a dessert castle concept, it incorporates a record-setting array of mechanical animations, smoke, bubble effects, and faux snowfall, offering visitors an unprecedented immersive floral art display.
A new highlight this year is the large-scale interactive installation "Choco Wonderland." Combining a panoramic viewing platform with an indoor mirror flower carpet, it allows visitors to overlook distant mountains and the sprawling floral displays below, or step inside a mirrored kaleidoscope built with real flowers for an unexpected journey through light, shadow, blooms, and reflections.
The festival continues to deepen its commitment to sustainable co-creation. Now entering its 4th year since its inception in 2023, the initiative collaborates with local children and seniors from Dongshi and Xinshe. Through every bloom and creation, it records a heartwarming journey of intergenerational learning and co-creation. Their collective artwork will be showcased at "Choco Wonderland," forming a vibrant, artful landscape alongside blooming flowers and standing witness to a precious story of local kindergarten children growing alongside the festival from enrollment to graduation.
Over the past 15 years, the Taichung International Flower Carpet Festival has used flowers as a medium to bridge culture, tourism, art, and local sentiment. In 2026, through Sanrio characters, Taichung's dessert culture, innovative floral designs, and sustainable co-creation, the event showcases the city's creative energy and urban charm as it celebrates its dazzling 15th anniversary.
