The two-day event will feature dragon dances, Taiwanese haka, "the third prince dance" and performances by a group from Taichung city.
Food stalls will be dishing up Taiwanese signature dishes such as pork belly buns, pineapple pie, salty fried chicken and pearl milk tea.
Also on show will be Hakka Tung blossom crafts, Taiwanese antiques and Chinese calligraphy.
"Children will also be introduced to traditional games like juggling diabolo, bamboo-copter and shuttlecock kicking," Lu said.
Organisers are hoping to make this an annual event, Lu said, and to make Taiwan Day "a day that Auckland anticipates and looks forward to".
"The hope is that through this event, more Kiwis will come to share and enjoy the rich cultures of Taiwan, increasing understanding... and exchange to enhance collaboration between communities."
Performers from other cultures, including India, Japan, Korea, Spain and Scotland, will be making cameo appearances at the event.
People in New Zealand identifying as Taiwanese comprised just 5715 people at the last census.
Three in four, or 4290, lived in the Auckland region and the median age was 31.6 per cent.
More than 85 per cent, or 4824, were not born in New Zealand.
