Upcoming concerts and music festivals in Hong Kong and Macau 2025

Make like the ancient Chinese literati and sit down to enjoy an hour of tea and music – you have permission to feel cultured and superior while doing it. Aptly held at the Tea House Theatre in the Xiqu Centre, a string quintet from the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra will play several pieces from classic Chinese music, from delicate harmonies to thunderous melodies. The auditory experience will be enhanced by tea master Lu Yuanyuan, who will offer different types of Chinese tea to be paired with different musical pieces. Head to West Kowloon on May 31 – tickets are available for $260.

M+ rounds off their spring season with everyone’s favourite late-night museum party on June 6. There’ll be a mix of pop, jazz, and a capella live performances this time, featuring local singer Serrini, jazz collective Fountain de Chopin playing music from the Blue Giant score, and more. The organisers of several Cantopop party events will also be spinning behind the decks, so expect a good amount of retro Cantonese music on the DJ setlists. As unusual, M+ at Night partygoers can also access all general admission galleries in the museum – tickets will be on sale for $280 from May 26 onwards, with early-bird and student discounts available.

Japanese hip-hop boy group Be:First is embarking on their very first world tour starting from April. Kicking off in Los Angeles, they will make their way to 15 cities such as London, Paris, Frankfurt, New York, Chicago, and Singapore – with Hong Kong also on their list. They’ve just released their latest single Spacecraft, only a couple of months after their previous single Sailing, which was used as the ending theme song for the One Piece Fishman Island arc.

Catch the seven-member band’s high-energy performances on June 28. The venue and ticket prices for their Hong Kong stop have yet to be released, so keep an eye on our page.

King of Mandopop Jay Chou will bring his eighth concert tour, Carnival, to Hong Kong towards the end of June, marking his first-ever performance in our new Kai Tak Stadium. Fans will be treated to the Taiwanese singer-songwriter’s most iconic hits throughout his 25-year musical career.

The official setlist for the concert has not been released, but judging from previous stops, he will perform beloved tracks such as Half-beast Human, Tornado, Unspeakable Secret, Give Me the Span of a Song, Mojito, and Loveable Woman. Chou’s Taiwan concerts also had a song-requesting portion in the show, so let’s see if he will break the record of singing more than 15 requested songs during his Hong Kong concerts.

The Carnival tour will be in town for three consecutive nights from June 27 to 29. Tickets run from $680 to $1,880.

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. 

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.

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!
