Guns N’ Roses Taiwan, it’s been too long! We’re back tonight in Taoyuan City for the first time since 2018. See you there
After a six-year wait, the roar of the crowd in Taoyuan City tonight will say it all: Guns N’ Roses is back in Taiwan. One of rock’s most iconic bands, known for their legendary anthems, electrifying stage presence, and raw, unapologetic energy, returns to the island for the first time since 2018—and fans couldn’t be more ready.
The long-anticipated concert marks a major moment for Taiwanese rock lovers. From the moment the band teased the show months ago, anticipation has surged. Tonight, the wait ends. Thousands will gather in Taoyuan International Baseball Stadium to witness the return of a band that defined a generation—and still burns with the same fire that made them legends.
A Nostalgic Reunion and a New Chapter
“Taiwan, it’s been too long!” the band announced on social media earlier today. “We’re back tonight in Taoyuan City for the first time since 2018. See you there.” The post sparked an online frenzy as fans from all over Taiwan—and beyond—shared memories, photos from the 2018 show, and excitement for what promises to be a historic night.
The 2018 concert was a high point in the band’s world tour, with over 25,000 fans packing the stadium. The energy was electric, and the memory has stayed alive in the hearts of many. Now, in 2025, Guns N’ Roses returns to a very different world, but with the same raw sound that made hits like Sweet Child O’ Mine, Welcome to the Jungle, and November Rain eternal rock staples.
This tour is more than just another string of dates—it’s part of a renewed chapter for Guns N’ Roses. Since the “Not in This Lifetime” reunion that brought Axl Rose, Slash, and Duff McKagan back together on stage, the band has experienced a revival that few thought possible. Their performances are tighter, louder, and more emotionally resonant than ever. And Taiwan is set to experience all of it—live and unfiltered.
The Power of Live Rock
For many fans in Taiwan, this concert is more than a night of music—it’s an emotional release. After years of pandemic restrictions, shifting tour dates, and uncertainty, seeing Guns N’ Roses live is a sign that the world is finally beginning to return to normal. It’s also a testament to the power of live rock music: nothing compares to the thunder of drums, the wail of a guitar solo, and the crowd singing every word in unison.
Tonight’s setlist is expected to be a powerful mix of old-school hits and newer material, blending nostalgia with fresh energy. Longtime fans will thrill to the opening chords of Paradise City and the blistering solos of Estranged, while younger listeners—many seeing the band live for the first time—will witness firsthand why Guns N’ Roses remains one of the most enduring rock acts in history.
The Legacy Continues
Guns N’ Roses is more than a band; they’re a cultural force. Formed in Los Angeles in 1985, their debut album Appetite for Destruction became the best-selling debut album in U.S. history. With their blend of gritty vocals, piercing guitar solos, and rebellious spirit, they redefined rock for a generation. Decades later, they’re still touring, still selling out stadiums, and still inspiring fans around the world.
Their return to Taiwan is not just a concert—it’s a celebration of that legacy. It’s a reminder that great music transcends time and distance, and that rock and roll is very much alive.
A Night to Remember
As the lights go down and the first notes echo through Taoyuan City tonight, the crowd will erupt—not just in excitement, but in gratitude. For the music. For the memories. For the chance to witness something truly iconic.
