The "2026 Fulong International Sand Sculpture Art Festival" grandly opened today (May 29th) in Fulong. This year marks the 19th edition of the festival, themed "Global Summer Sand Sculpture Party," combining elements from classic global films and animations to create a sand sculpture art exhibition that is both fun, topical, and internationally appealing. To optimize the overall tourism service environment in Fulong, a friendly and accessible walking path system around the Fulong parking lot and improved nighttime lighting have also been completed, providing a safer, more comfortable, and convenient recreational space. The exhibition runs from May 29th to October 26th, from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM daily (until 7:30 PM on weekends) at Fulong Beach, inviting visitors to experience the most vibrant and exciting summer atmosphere in Fulong.

Today's opening event features a special invitation to FOCASA Circus, together with the Tourism Administration's mascot "Oh Bear" and the Northeast Coast mascot "Lucky Dragon," to co-choreograph a themed performance, "Summer Rainbows, Treasure Hunt Adventure on Land and Sea." Combining circus interaction with stage performance, the show will lead the audience on a fun-filled and surprising summer journey through ocean and land adventure stories, kicking off the event with a splendid opening.

The Fulong International Sand Sculpture Art Festival has become one of Taiwan's representative summer tourism brands for many years. This year, in addition to the spectacular sand sculpture exhibition, it has further incorporated a holistic curatorial approach, combining a series of themed events. To enhance the visitor experience, the Northeast Coast National Scenic Area Administration has combined local characteristics with the "Colorful Waves, FULONG Cool Summer Party" to connect four themed monthly events: "Frozen Awakening: Fulong Summer Freeze" in May and June, "Orange and White Frenzy: Macaron Beach Party" in July, "Wave Double Dragon Meet: Extreme Water Battle Black Summer Party" in August, and "Pink Track: Extreme Slow Travel Self-Guided Cycling" in September. Through diverse themed activities, the summer tourism boom in Fulong continues.

In addition, to create a more friendly and sustainable coastal tourism environment, the friendly walking trail improvement project around Fulong Parking Lot was completed this year, enhancing barrier-free access and pedestrian comfort, and improving the recreational convenience for families, senior citizens and tourists with mobility impairments. In addition, the nighttime lighting environment was officially opened, and the surrounding space was connected through soft lighting design, which not only improved the safety of nighttime walking, but also created a more layered and romantic coastal landscape, boosting nighttime stays and consumption, and further expanding Fulong's nighttime economy and tourism experience.

This event also connects local business districts, specialty shops, bicycle tours, and surrounding sightseeing tours. It is hoped that the Fulong International Sand Sculpture Art Festival will become an important platform connecting local industries, local culture, and tourism, leading more tourists into the streets and along the coast to deeply experience the unique charm of the mountains and seas and the scenery of life in the Northeast Coast.

This summer, Fulong will accompany the public through an unforgettable summer with the most enthusiastic sand sculpture art, the most colorful coastal atmosphere, and the most abundant series of activities.
