Kaohsiung's premier live-music venue hosts indie acts from Taiwan and Asia several times a week. See monthly schedules on Facebook. Shows usually start at 7.30pm. If nothing's on, go for a drink at the bar – it's open six days a week, very laid-back and offers discounted beer Saturday to Monday.
If taking the bus, disembark at Fruit and Vegetable Market station (果菜公司站; Guǒcài Gōngsī Zhàn) and walk to the bar. If taking the KMRT, the nearest station is Houyi (後驛站). Paramount Bar is roughly 1.7km from Exit 2 of the station.
