Zhubei Cultural Park recently completed its renovation project and reopened on Halloween.
Today is Halloween, and it is also the day when the Zhubei Cultural Park is renovated and restarted. The Zhubei City Office held the "Zhubei Halloween Dance Carnival", inviting all communities in the city to show off their talents, and even invited the internationally renowned "Coming True Fire Dance Troupe" to perform "Treasure Island Fire". Before the fire dance, adults and children paraded through the streets and gathered in the cultural park. The city office estimated that at nearly 6:30, when the fire dance debuted, at least 12,000 people gathered together to enjoy it.
Before launching the fire dance, Mayor Zheng Chaofang also counted down with everyone to light up the recently renovated Hanlin Bridge, allowing all guests to see the beauty of Hanlin Bridge at night.
Earlier in the Halloween parade, the Democratic Progressive Party's Zhubei mayoral candidate Zeng Shengkai and the Taiwan People's Party's Zhubei mayoral candidate Qiu Chenyuan also cosplayed to participate in the event.
Qiu Chenyuan appeared in the form of "Saint Seiya". He said that in the story of "Saint Seiya", the saints protect their partners with courage and face challenges with faith. This spirit is exactly the attitude that urban governance should have. So he declared himself a saint and wanted to protect and treat Zhubei well. Zheng Chaofang cosplayed Odysseus, the protagonist of the movie Odyssey, and County Councilor Ouyang Ting transformed into Sheriff Woody from Toy Story, which was quite eye-catching.
The much-anticipated "Come Real Fire Dance Troupe", led by well-known troupe member Yang Liwei, will present their signature fire dance drama "Treasure Island Flame", using fire dance, stunts, drama and Taiwanese local cultural imagery to light up the Halloween night sky in Zhubei through strong rhythm and high explosive flames.
Before and after the fire dance show, there is also a "Rock Grandpa" stage in the Cultural Park, calling on grandparents from all neighborhoods and communities across the city to take the stage, show off their special talents and show off their charm, and present a cross-generational Halloween carnival.
