54th Hong Kong Arts Festival

One of the highlights of our Arts Month in March is the long-standing Hong Kong Arts Festival, now back for its 54th edition. Running from February 27 to March 27, the 54th Hong Kong Arts Festival will gather more than 1,100 performers, musicians, and artists to present more than 45 distinct programmes in a packed schedule of over 170 performances.

Not to be missed is the Kagami by Ryuichi Sakamoto & Tin Drum mixed-reality performance honouring the late Japanese composer; legendary Sir John Eliot Gardiner’s performance with the Constellation Choir & Orchestra for two nights only; the Asia premiere of La Bella Otero by the Ballet Nacional de España; Canadian troupe The 7 Fingers (Les 7 Doigts) presenting Duel Reality, a blend of contemporary circus antics, theatre arts, and Shakespearean romance and drama, and more. 

Here’s a more detailed guide to this year’s Hong Kong Arts Festival.
