A month of carnivals, fun days, field trips, workshops, and seminar talks, which will be part of the ‘ICH Around Town’. A time to immerse yourself in the city’s rich cultural heritage, one activity at a time. Over 80 performances and 60 interactive booths during the festival will enthral crowds.

In line with the Chinese Culture Promotion Series, the ICH promotes Chinese history through its many programmes giving tourists and the public the chance to learn about the intriguing Chinese culture. The buzzing city of Hong Kong beckons you to wear your dancing shoes, your most festive attire and be part of the city’s year-round vibrant festivities.
There are world-class events and even seasonal celebrations in the mix. So, there’s always something happening day in and day out in Hong Kong. Among the many unmissable events is the Sun Life Hong Kong International Dragon Boat Races happening from 7-8 June, 2025.
