Our Story
ABOUT TAIWAN YES HOUSTON
Taiwan Yes (台灣夜市) Houston is a cultural event hosted by Taiwanese Association of America, Houston Chapter. It was first known as Taiwan Night Market Festival, and now the "Taiwan Yes Festival". The purpose of this exciting event is to introduce and promote Taiwan's culture, especially the activities in the night markets, to communities in the greater Houston areas. It is an event full of great food, exuberant activities, and lots of fun.
Taiwan has been renown by its manufacturing in high-tech industries and hard-working people. To tourists around the world, Taiwanese snacks and night markets are also the key attractions. Among all Eastern Asian countries, Taiwan is always ranked at the top for its food variety and service quality. ”Taiwan Yes Festival” will deliver the same quality of foods and fabulous activities to Houstonians without paying airfare! Furthermore, almost every Taiwanese shares common childhood memories with night-market activities (e.g. a tasty roasted sausage won from a pinball game). “Taiwan Yes Festival” is the extraordinary opportunity not only to reunite all Taiwanese Americans in the greater Houston area but also to recognize “We are part of Houston community”!
Taiwan Yes Festival was able to gather thousands of people from the greater Houston area to participate each of the last five years. This year, we are expecting even more. So, what are you waiting for? Mark your calendar on May, 14th 2022. Bring your friends and family along. Come and join us with great food and fun!
感謝您一直以來,對休士頓台灣人社區的支持。我們將在今年的五月十四日，禮拜六，上午十點三十分到下午四點，舉辦第七屆的「Taiwan Yes Festival」台灣節活動。這個以台灣為名的嘉年華，總是能吸引及款待超過數千慕名而來的同鄉和休士頓市民。
因為武漢肺炎停辦兩年，今年我們將為後疫情時代的社區活動展開恢復的第一炮。 台灣的特色小吃向來是世界聞名，中外皆知，不只讓在異地生活的台灣人魂牽夢縈，連嚐過我們台灣美食的外國朋友們也個個讚不絕口，呵咾kah ē觸舌。
在這場「Taiwan Yes Festival」台灣節的夜市文化活動中，除了一攤攤任君品味的傳統美食以外，當然更少不了能讓大家一起同樂的夜市遊戲。在撈金魚，打彈珠、套圈圈、打水球…等等的遊戲攤，總有著聚集著大朋友、小朋友，還有老朋友們，混在一起吆喝競賽、加油打氣、領獎歡笑的溫馨畫面。而這也是休士頓台灣人活動中心最原始的初心，希望能藉著這場年度盛事，為台灣人以及台灣社區創造更多的美好回憶和凝聚力。
