This cultural tourism festival utilizes the cultural, culinary, and tourism resources of island regions around the world. The festival is comprised of three main areas: "Travel," which features cultural and tourism exhibitions; "Taste," which offers culinary experiences; and "Vibe," which provides cultural performances and interactive activities.

"Travel" includes a tourism promotion section showcasing the attractions of participating island regions, as well as cultural and tourism exhibitions featuring traditional clothing experiences, cultural activities, and photography exhibits.
