Clockenflap
Hong Kong’s biggest music and arts festival is going all out for its 10th anniversary along the waterfront. This year’s line-up is headlined by international acts including&nbsp;Massive Attack (UK), Feist (Canada) and MØ (Denmark). “Festivals like Clockenflap occupy a very important place in the cultural and creative landscape of the city,” says founder Justin Sweeting. “This is our 10th year and we’re very much staying true to our vision and spirit as always. You’ll have to come to see for yourself – the only way to experience the magic.”

Arts in the Park
Calling all kids and kids at heart – this popular annual outdoor youth arts festival and puppet parade is back, this time celebrating all things Roald Dahl. The British novelist’s works (Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) will come alive in the form of giant characters and storytelling sessions. Interactive activities like the African Drum Jam and free art stalls will allow youngsters to unleash their creative energy in projects like mask and headdress making or face painting.

Rugby Charity Ball
Now in its 16th year, the prestigious Hong Kong Rugby Union Charity Ball continues its gala-for-a-cause. This year’s event will be headlined by World Classic Rockers, a supergroup composed of former members of Santana, Kansas, Boston and other legendary bands. The annual fundraiser has contributed over HK$88 million to education and rugby programmes serving underprivileged children since 2002. The black tie affair includes pre-dinner cocktails, a four-course dinner, a live concert and an auction (starring a custom-painted Harley- Davidson bike!) to cap off the night.

World Cultures Festival
Thumping beats and tribal arts travel to Hong Kong from the cradle of civilisation: Africa. The colourful World Cultures Festival is set to showcase the continent’s most distinctive music, dance and theatre acts in a line-up opened by none other than “African artist of the century” Youssou N’Dour (Senegal). The closing performance by Cape Town Opera pays tribute to South Africa’s first black president in a stirring folk opera entitled Mandela Trilogy.

Secret Theatre’s Project Mayhem
If you’ve been bemoaning the lack of an edgy arts scene in the 852 reminiscent of London and New York, maybe you haven’t been looking hard enough. Secret Theatre – which got its start with a production of Edward Scissorhands in an abandoned New York City factory – is in town for another round of immersive storytelling. While details on this experiential dinner and theatre show are intentionally scant, audiences can expect to be placed in a warehouse with devious characters who will act out “one of modern history’s most twisted tales of fraternity, violence and all-out psychological warfare”. You’ve been warned!
3 November – 10 December

Hong Kong International Literary Festival
Established and emerging writers from around the world come to Hong Kong for a 10-day programme of discussions, literary-themed lunches, workshops, debates, book signings, lectures and readings. The annual festival embraces creative writing in English, with an emphasis on connections to Asia. Look out for Amy Tan (author of The Joy Luck Club) at the gala dinner.

Le Corsaire
Emmy Award-winning choreographer Anna-Marie Holmes is the creative force behind Hong Kong Ballet’s premiere of Le Corsaire. This staging stars Moscow-born Maria Kochetkova (San Francisco Ballet) and Canadian Matthew Golding (The Royal Ballet). Audiences can follow the romance between a dashing pirate and the beautiful harem girl he rescues – a classic adventure with a side of pas de trois.

Leisure and Pleasure: Events in Hong Kong this November

<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-10452" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/beer_path-e1478157941980.jpg" alt="beer_path" width="582" height="446" />
Beertopia
Lightweights beware. With more than 500 varieties of beer from 20-plus countries on offer, Hong Kong’s largest craft beer festival makes it hard to resist that second or third – or sixth – flagon of ale. Returning for the fifth time, this year the beer selection on offer is said to be bigger than ever. While the bulk of its craft beers have been brewed in the US, Australia and Belgium, breweries from countries as far-flung as Lithuania, Lebanon and Wales are also represented. This year’s list includes 13 Hong Kong breweries – some 65 local beers. Overall, there will be more than 100 IPAs and more than 50 porters and stouts.
Last year’s event welcomed 3,000 beer drinkers and we imagine the nearby MTR stations were, shall we say, awash with colour later that evening. As the festival wears on and the empty bottles start stacking up, hungry beer enthusiasts will not have to resort to a late-night McDonald’s run as some two-dozen food vendors will be on site. There will also be live DJs throughout the day, an outdoor shisha garden, complete with relaxing bean bag chairs, as well as the event’s ever-popular range of beer games, including Giant Beer Pong, memorably played with garbage bins and volleyballs. As always attendees are advised to drink seriously… or should that have been sensibly? Too late to worry now.
