During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, many travelers are heading to northern and northeastern Taiwan for summer outings. One of the region's most popular attractions is the 2026 Fulong International Sand Sculpture Art Festival, currently on display at Fulong Beach and running through October 26. This year's theme, “Universal Summer Sand Party,” features sand sculptures inspired by famous movie and animated characters.

According to the Northeast and Yilan Coast National Scenic Area Administration, this year's exhibition highlights large-scale movie-themed sand sculptures that blend coastal scenery with a festive summer atmosphere. Visitors can see creations inspired by Jurassic World, Back to the Future, Jaws, E.T., Shrek, Kung Fu Panda, Madagascar, How to Train Your Dragon, The Boss Baby, and The Bad Guys.

In addition to the sand sculpture exhibition, the festival includes a series of “FULONG Summer Party” events. July will feature the Macaron Beach Party, August will host the Extreme Water Battle Party, and September will offer a cycling activity showcasing the scenic coastline and mountains of Northeast Taiwan.

The Fulong International Sand Sculpture Art Festival has become one of the signature summer tourism events in Northeast Taiwan. Beyond viewing the sand sculptures, visitors can explore nearby attractions, cycling routes, and coastal landscapes while enjoying the region's natural beauty.
