While October’s National Day celebrations may not be kicking off in its traditional firework-punctuated style this year, the People’s Republic of China’s 70th birthday still affords the perfect opportunity to take a little break from everyday life. Aside from providing an interlude from office, it’s a chance to grab your loved ones and explore those hitherto-unvisited corners of Hong Kong. Explore the wonders of the Tai Po Marshes, treat your kiddies to a Disneyland adventure, or simply gather your loved ones for a sumptuous meal at home.&nbsp;Locations vary.

<h3>Tai Kok Tsui Temple Fair</h3>
<h4>3 Mar</h4>
For the 15th consecutive year, the Tai Kok Tsui Temple&nbsp;Fair returns to Hong Kong with its joyous celebration&nbsp;of Hung Shing, the God of the Sea. With all the action&nbsp;taking place just a few minutes from Mong Kok, attendees&nbsp;can expect to spend the day wholly immersed in traditional&nbsp;Chinese arts and culture. The day begins, of course, with a&nbsp;grand parade, complete with sparkly costumes, acrobatic&nbsp;mayhem and a display of percussion perfection. In the&nbsp;evening, the organisers promise 18 dancing lions and at&nbsp;least one 500-foot-long dragon&nbsp;winding its way through the&nbsp;streets. This, it’s fair to say,&nbsp;is no ordinary itinerary.

<h3>Hamlet</h3>
<h4>7–9 Mar</h4>
Bardolatrians can&nbsp;rejoice as one of&nbsp;Shakespeare’s most&nbsp;admired works makes its long overdue return to Hong Kong.&nbsp;Hamlet, a play cherished as much for its vivid lyricism as for&nbsp;its universal motifs, is undoubtedly the world’s best-loved&nbsp;tragedy, making this latest interpretation – a contemporary &nbsp;Chinese translation, complete with a star-studded cast&nbsp;at the ever-glorious Grand Theatre – all but unmissable.&nbsp;With renowned director Li Liuyi – fresh from the smash hit&nbsp;success of his singular take on King Lear that was the talk&nbsp;of Beijing last year – at the helm, this promises to be the&nbsp;definitive Hamlet of our times. Performed in Putonghua&nbsp;with Chinese and English surtitles, no one need miss out.

<h3 class="p5">2019 Hong Kong E-Prix</h3>
<h4>10 Mar</h4>
Once again, the Hong Kong E-Prix is&nbsp;on track to supply the need-for-speed&nbsp;crowd with an air-punching display of&nbsp;Gen2 racecars, with&nbsp;a number of on- and&nbsp;off-road surprises&nbsp;also promised for&nbsp;all keen automobile&nbsp;aficionados. With 22&nbsp;drivers and 11 teams,&nbsp;this is by far the&nbsp;biggest race to date,&nbsp;and, as if that weren’t enough, this year&nbsp;also marks the debut of Attack Mode,&nbsp;a facility that allows drivers to reach a&nbsp;top speed of 225kmph – 25kmph faster&nbsp;than any past E-Prix has been able to&nbsp;deliver. Thankfully, not one to overlook&nbsp;the environment, this year’s event is&nbsp;skewed towards all-electric vehicles and&nbsp;will provide a gripping update on all the&nbsp;latest developments in this dynamic field.

<h3 class="p1">Disney Springtime&nbsp;Carnival</h3>
<h4>15 Mar–30 Jun</h4>
If you’re looking for a way to entertain&nbsp;the kids, while not having too shabby&nbsp;a time yourself, pencilling in a trip&nbsp;to Disneyland’s Springtime Carnival&nbsp;may well be in order. Yes, one of Hong&nbsp;Kong’s “most magical places” – at&nbsp;least according to the House of Mouse&nbsp;PR machine – is set to have Mickey&nbsp;and Co celebrate the season with a&nbsp;characterful egg-hunt, a fantasy parade,&nbsp;and, of course, an enchanting Easter&nbsp;carnival. Fortuitously opening just in&nbsp;time for the festivities is the brand new&nbsp;projection show We Love Mickey!,&nbsp;which apparently has cutting-edge visual&nbsp;effects by the bucketload. Hah, take&nbsp;that, Ocean Park!

<h4>29–31 Mar</h4>
Asia’s premier art fair returns with works&nbsp;from all the very finest artists of five&nbsp;different continents, while retaining a&nbsp;particular emphasis on Asia and Asia-Pacific creatives, with their works&nbsp;accounting for some 50 percent of the&nbsp;total on display. As well as having a chance to mull over the epoch-defining artistic&nbsp;masterpieces&nbsp;on show,&nbsp;attendees&nbsp;will also have&nbsp;the chance to&nbsp;mingle with the&nbsp;artists, attend&nbsp;seminars&nbsp;dedicated to individual works and, should&nbsp;they be fortunate enough, be treated to a&nbsp;glimpse of a few of the submissions that&nbsp;are not on show to the general public.&nbsp;Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition

March Events in Hong Kong: A round-up of this month’s must-see events

<img decoding="async" class="ngg_displayed_gallery mceItem" src="//www.gafencushop.com/nextgen-attach_to_post/preview/id--18459" data-mce-placeholder="1" />
The success of the 10th edition of the Asia Contemporary Art Show proves there is more to Art Week in Hong Kong than simply Art Basel and Art Central.
The show welcomed more than 10,000 collectors and an estimated HK$26million of sales were made over the fair’s four days.
“We were delighted to have been the first art fair to open during Hong Kong Art Week,” said Director Mark Saunderson. “There was a real buzz during the Langton’s VIP Collectors Preview on Friday, with visitors queuing a few hundred deep at peak hour.”
The Asia Contemporary Art Show is held twice a year in Hong Kong, once in March and once in October.
Visitors to the show, which is held across four floors of the Conrad Hotel, viewed more than 3,000 works presented by more than 80 galleries and artists from Asia and beyond.
Unlike Art Basel and Art Central which rely more on exhibitors, more than 50 artists chatted to collectors and art enthusiasts at the show.
The exhibition showcased both established and emerging artists.

Hong Kong’s art scene is ever growing, evidenced by a spike in attendees at this fall’s Asia Contemporary Art Show.
More than 11,000 art collectors and enthusiasts – marking a 7 percent increase from the spring 2016 event &#8211; perused through diverse works hailing from countries across the continent. An exit survey showed that art sales also jumped to about HK$25 million, a new record. Edition works and sculptures proved especially popular.
Held at the Conrad Hong Kong, this was the art show’s ninth year.

“We are delighted with the fall edition of the show, now by far the largest and longest-running art fair in Hong Kong in the second half of the year,” said Director Mark Saunderson. “Each event goes from strength to strength as we build our brand and buyer database – we have a loyal following of collectors and art buyers who come to the show in spring and fall, and each time we welcome a new group of younger collectors and art enthusiasts.”
In addition to Asian artworks, pieces from Australia, Italy, France, Germany, North and South America, and other countries were also sold.
Lithuanian artist Ala Leresteux said Hong Kong buyers are particularly inquisitive.
Leresteux said: “I have exhibited in many European countries, but it is my first time exhibiting at a Hong Kong art fair. The people here are so curious, they ask really profound and probing questions about my art.”
The 10th edition of the show will be held at the Conrad from March 17 to 20, 2017, coinciding with the beginning of Hong Kong Art Week.
