Red Envelope Club, Entertainment venue in Ximending, Taiwan

Red Envelope Club presents traditional Chinese songs from the 1920s to 1950s with female performers singing for an older male audience in Taipei.

Following the Chinese Civil War, these clubs started in the 1960s as gathering spots for former Kuomintang soldiers who relocated from mainland China.

The name derives from the tradition of guests presenting money to performers in red packets, a long-standing gesture of appreciation in Chinese society.

The entertainment venues concentrate along Hankou Street, Emei Street, and Xining South Road within the Ximending district of Taipei.

These establishments preserve musical traditions from mid-20th century China through nightly performances of classic songs from that period.
