FKJ Concert - New Taipei: Dates, Tickets & Venue (New Taipei City)

Picture a stage that looks more like a cluttered studio than a club set. There’s a saxophone on a stand, a bass and a guitar within arm’s reach, keyboards in a half-circle, and one man in the middle building songs out of loops. That’s an FKJ show. On December 8, 2026, the French multi-instrumentalist brings it to ZEPP New Taipei in Xinzhuang.

One night in Xinzhuang

The date is Tuesday, December 8, 2026. The venue is ZEPP New Taipei, part of the Zepp chain of live halls that grew out of Japan. It sits in Xinzhuang District’s Fuduxin area, the newer civic and commercial quarter on the western side of New Taipei City.

The door time, start time and ticket sections are printed on the ticket and on the show’s ticketing page. No support act or set length is part of the information here, so this guide makes no guesses about either.

The loop station at the centre of the stage

FKJ stands for French Kiwi Juice, the project of Vincent Fenton from Tours, France. He became known for building tracks live, one layer at a time. He plays a line, loops it, then moves to the next instrument while the first keeps going.

That method is the show. Expect to watch these pieces stack up into a full arrangement:

• Keys and Rhodes-style electric piano, which carry most of his chord work
• Saxophone, often the moment the crowd reacts loudest
• Bass and guitar, looped underneath to lock the groove in place
• Drum machines and pads, triggered by hand rather than hidden in a backing track

His best-known tracks include “Tadow” with Masego and “Ylang Ylang”. Many fans first found him through filmed live sessions, including his Cercle set on Bolivia’s Salar de Uyuni salt flat. In those videos the camera mostly follows his hands. In a room the size of Zepp, you get that view live.

Getting to Fuduxin by MRT

Most concertgoers take the metro. Xinzhuang Fuduxin Station on the Circular Line is the closest stop. From central Taipei, the usual route is a transfer onto the Circular Line, or a ride on the Orange (Zhonghe–Xinlu) Line to the Xinzhuang stops with a short walk or taxi from there.

An EasyCard covers every leg of the trip and can be topped up at any station machine. The Taoyuan Airport MRT also passes through Xinzhuang. That helps if you’re flying in on the day or catching an early flight the next morning.

After the show, everyone heads for the same gates at once. The MRT closes around midnight, so people coming from far across the city usually keep an eye on the encore and their last train. Taxis and ride-hail cars gather on the main roads around the Fuduxin area too.

Inside ZEPP New Taipei

Zepp halls are built for exactly this kind of show. The main floor is flat and standing-only. It gives way to a raised area further back, with a smaller seated section where the ticket layout includes one.

The sight lines suit FKJ. If you’re close in on the floor, you can follow which instrument he picks up and when he hits the loop pedal. Further back, the raised levels give a clearer view over heads, and many returning fans pick that spot for loop-heavy sets.

December evenings in New Taipei are cool and often damp. Inside, a packed standing floor gets warm quickly. Most people wear a light layer they can take off and carry, rather than a heavy coat.

Getting in by ticket number

Standing shows in Taiwan run on numbered entry. Your ticket carries a sequence number (入場序號), and staff call people forward in blocks by those numbers. A low number means an earlier entry and a better shot at the barrier.

Here’s how it usually works on the night:

• Queues form outside in number order. Staff hold signs or call out ranges, and people slot into their block.
• Arriving before your block is called doesn’t move you up. Fans with high numbers usually turn up around their call time instead of waiting for hours.
• Bag checks happen at the door. Large bags slow things down, and people tend to travel light.
• Phone screens and filming. Local audiences are generally quiet about this. Short clips are common, but holding a phone up for a whole song annoys the people behind you.

Taiwanese crowds tend to be orderly and polite in the queue and on the floor. People make room for someone heading to the bar or the toilets. Pushing toward the front after the doors open is frowned on, because the numbering already decided who stands where.

Xinzhuang before the doors open

The Fuduxin area is mostly new: government buildings, malls and wide boulevards, plus Xinzhuang Baseball Stadium nearby. The malls make for easy dinner stops with food courts and chain restaurants. Many concertgoers eat there before joining their queue block.

If you have a spare afternoon, older Xinzhuang is a short ride away. Xinzhuang Old Street and the temple lanes around it are among the district’s oldest streets. The snack stalls of the temple-street night market line the same area. It’s a cheaper, more local-feeling meal than the mall floors.

Many visitors from overseas stay in central Taipei rather than New Taipei City and simply ride the metro out for the night. If you’re flying out of Taoyuan, sleeping in Xinzhuang is practical too. The Airport MRT puts the terminals within easy reach the next morning.
