Upcoming concerts and music festivals in Hong Kong and Macau 2025

Indie Hong Kong hip hop artist Tyson Yoshi has announced his first concert at the Kai Tak Arena, promising to show fans a new side of himself: the self-proclaimed villain. Instead of a straight-up ‘bad guy’, Yoshi’s villain signifies his position as a black sheep in the music industry, from not doing pop to insisting on remaining independent instead of signing onto a major label. Referencing his favourite anime shows, he says, ‘Other artists might be the heroes in Naruto or One Piece, but I’m more like Death Note.’ Yoshi’s concerts will run from July 4 to 6, and tickets range from $680 to $1,180.

This July, the Next Wave Beach Festival returns to Discovery Bay for two days of sun and tunes. This will mark their third festival in Hong Kong and, as ever, will feature both local and international acts. The Saturday lineup includes Hong Kong’s own Kaho Hung, Taiwanese king of romantic ballads Eric Chou, rapper Gummy B, Taiwanese singers Patti Tsai and Kelly Cheng, and experimental pop group I’mdifficult from Taipei.

Sunday’s itinerary is even more star-studded, with K-pop girl group Itzy headlining, along with Chung Ha, Korean rock band Dragon Pony, and relatively new South Korean-Taiwanese girl group Genblue. Mark your calendars for July 5 to 6, kicking off from 3.30pm at Discovery Bay.

South Korean alternative music collective Balming Tiger is coming back to Hong Kong for their first headline performance. On July 14, the group will bring their rap- and metal-tinged exuberance to the Kitty Woo Stadium for one night only. 

It’s really not easy to pigeonhole their music into any one genre, but concertgoers can expect an energetic mix of hip-hop, rap, electro, R&B, synth, and K-pop. If you missed their electric performance at Clockenflap 2023, then mark your calendars for the ticket drop at noon on April 17. Kitty Woo is not a big venue so they’re bound to sell out quickly!

British rising pop artist Henry Moodie is embarking on his first-ever headline tour in Asia, starting off in Kuala Lumpur before taking the stage in Bangkok, Seoul, Taipei, Hong Kong, and Tokyo. At just 21 years old, he has already been one of the most-viewed UK artists on TikTok in 2022 and 2024 (joining the likes of Central Cee, Charli XCX, and Coldplay), and following on from his second EP Good Old Days last October, is planning on releasing his debut album this year. Catch Moodie at the Kitty Woo Stadium on July 28 – tickets start from $599, with meet-and-greet VIP packages available. 

South Korean singer-songwriter and actress Bibi has just kick started her first-ever world tour ‘Eve’ – starting with Seoul, she is taking the stage across the US and Canada before making her way back to several Asian cities including Hong Kong. Since her debut in 2019, Bibi has established herself as a strong contender in the Korean hip-hop scene, with a genre-bending sound that blends R&B, indie rock, and funk-pop influences. 

She has just released her second studio album Eve: Romance in May, so expect to hear bangers like Hongdae R&B, Bluebird, and more performed live. Bibi will take the stage at the AsiaWorld-Expo on Sunday, August 3, with tickets running from $699 to $1,799. The VIP packages will include a special laminate and lanyard, an autographed postcard, early access to merch, access to the pre-show soundcheck party, and a group photo with Bibi herself for VVIPs.

Multi-platinum artist Elijah Woods released his new single Could You Love Me? earlier in February, and will return to our shores after his sold-out Asia tour last year. Be treated to a mix of his chart-topping hits and fresh tracks as Woods visits Bangkok, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Taipei, and Seoul. Grab tickets to his Asia tour here. 

NCT subunit boy group NCT Dream is coming back to town after their Hong Kong concert last summer. After kicking off their ‘The Dream Show 4: Dream The Future’ tour in Seoul, the seven-piece band will move on to Bangkok before coming to us, then performing in Jakarta, Singapore, Taipei, and Kuala Lumpur until the end of this year. This also marks the first time that a K-pop act will hold a show in the Kai Tak Stadium, so mark your calendars for August 30! Ticketing details will be announced at a later date.

Super Junior is celebrating their 20th anniversary (!!) this year, and they’re bringing their world tour ‘Super Show 10’ to both Hong Kong and Macau. The second-generation group will also release their 12th studio album Super Junior 25 on July 12, which is their first album in about three years. This gives fans plenty of time to get familiarised with their new songs, as the nine active members will take the stage at AsiaWorld-Arena on September 5 and 6, and then at Galaxy Arena in Macau early next year on January 10 and 11, 2026.

The iconic soft rock group will be stopping by Macau as part of their 50th anniversary world tour, so mark your calendars for September 6. The last time they played in our vicinity was back in 2015 for their 40th anniversary, so it’s been a good long while.

Expect to be serenaded by Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock at Broadway Macau as they perform a selection of their instantly recognisable 80s hits. Tickets run from $598 to $1,498, and we have a feeling they’ll sell out, so get clicking while they’re still available!

To commemorate the 150th anniversary of the legendary Carmen from French composer George Bizet, one of the world’s best-known operas, The Peninsula Hong Kong is presenting a brand-new adaptation of this 1875 opera – but the catch is that it’s set in a Hong Kong bar in the 60s and 70s instead of 1800s Seville. And where else should Les Amours de Carmen Wong be held but within The Peninsula Hong Kong’s beautiful fine dining spaces?

To make the evenings even more special, each performance will be accompanied by culinary offerings specially created for the occasion. Head to Gaddi’s on July 21 or Felix on September 20 to enjoy the contemporary opera performance as well as special one-off menus. The extremely limited Les Amours de Carmen Wong opera and dinner experience is priced at $4,800 per person, and is available by reservation only. 

Globally popular Korean girl group Blackpink has announced the highly anticipated Asia leg of their Deadline world tour, and Hong Kong’s on their schedule! The last time Blackpink was in town was during their Born Pink world tour, when they played three concerts at the AsiaWorld-Expo in early 2023.

That was the highest-grossing tour by a girl group, and with the release of several successful solo projects from Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa since then, we can only expect even more people to want to see them perform live now. Since Hong Kong is the final stop on their Deadline tour, we’re also keeping our fingers crossed they end things with a bang and jazz things up for our shows.
