© Hong Kong Arts Festival Society Ltd

 

The Hong Kong Arts Festival is one of the most important cultural happenings in Southeast Asia. It features overseas and local artists in an eclectic array of music, theatre, dance, popular entertainment, film and exhibition programmes. Created in 1972, it has grown in significance to become the most important event in the local arts calendar, both in terms of the number and stature of artists invited to perform and in the richness and diversity of programmes on offer. A melting pot of different styles ranging from traditional opera to new, modern forms of artistic expression, the festival opens with a spectacular open-air event at the Piazza Party and continues for over a month.
