Your summer plans just got more exciting with the announcement of the Harbour Chill Carnival. The music-themed Hong Kong carnival is taking place for five consecutive weekend evenings starting July 8 as part of the Happy Hong Kong campaign.
The Hong Kong Tourism Board is giving away free tickets for the music shows at the carnival! Don’t miss the chance to enjoy a range of street performances and X-Games performances, and more at the Wan Chai Harbourfront venues. Other than the city’s first beach carnival, this one should be on your list too. Read on to find out how you can score free tickets!
Enjoy a range of music-themed attractions
The Harbour Chill Carnival will have five free-to-attend attractions. Each event will take place at different venues including the Water Sports and Recreation Precinct and Wan Chai Temporary Promenade—all spanning 30,000 square metres of space. The carnival will happen every weekend until August 6 from 6 to 11 pm.
Some highlights include the Symphony of Lights Waterfront Pyrotechnic Edition, a weekend-only version of the Symphony of Lights. In addition, more than 40 artists from Hong Kong, Taiwan, the Mainland, and overseas will be performing each weekend based on a theme.
