One of the biggest cultural events in Hong Kong’s calendar is the annual International Arts Carnival, which attracts world-class performing arts groups from across the globe.
What happens?
The 2024 Carnival runs from July 5 until August 11, with a mixture of in-person stage shows and interactive activities.
The Carnival is designed specifically with families in mind, with the aim of exposing children to the world of the arts, so there is a variety of family-friendly programming.
In previous years, the lineup has included theatre, dance, acrobatics, black light puppeteering, opera for babies, and musicals. There are also international film screenings, and other interactive experiences.
The shows take place in various locations, such as the Hong Kong Cultural Center in Tsim Sha Tsui, the Hong Kong Space Museum, the Yuen Long Theatre, and Sha Tin Town Hall, to name a few.
