Same Tickets, New Dates? Typhoon Champi Reshuffles K-Pop Shows in Taiwan

Fans plan flights and hotels around show dates. Then a typhoon moves the stage by a day—or months. As Champi approached Taiwan, the first task for concertgoers became checking safety notices rather than setlists.

OSEN reported on October 24 that PLAVE's October 23 'KEEP IT MANIC' Taipei concert was postponed to October 25 at 6 p.m. local time after severe-weather closures. Its October 24 concert was still scheduled at the reporting cutoff, subject to further announcements. Jessica's October 24 'Reflections' show was moved to February 20, 2027, and Hualien's Korean music event moved from October 24–25 to October 25–26.

Several schedule changes exposed how concerts depend on far more than performers: venue operations, local government decisions, transport and fans all have to line up. Taiwanese authorities reported casualties and transport disruption from the storm, making safety more important than keeping a show on its original date.

On October 22, Taiwan's EBC News quoted the Hualien County authorities prioritizing visitor safety in rescheduling their festival. Korean outlet OSEN subsequently reported the PLAVE and Jessica changes on October 24. This article does not invent fan refund disputes, losses or travel delays.

The Hualien festival combines acts such as TNX, Xdinary Heroes, BTOB, Hyolyn, Lee Chae-yeon and Ryeowook with local artists; the Hualien authorities describe it as free to attend. PLAVE and Jessica concerts are separate ticketed events with their own terms.

PLAVE's original ticket listing showed October 23 at 7:30 p.m. and October 24 at 6 p.m. Taiwan time; reporting places the rescheduled October 23 show on October 25 at 6 p.m. Hualien's official event website currently lists October 25 from 19:00–22:00 and October 26 from 18:00–21:00. Some secondary reports give 19:00 for both days, so organizers' latest notices should prevail.

Further weather-related changes may follow after October 24. Ticket holders should check artists' and promoters' notices, official ticketing platforms and local transport updates for admission or refund rules. Old calendar entries may not reflect the new schedule.
