What’s On? Things to do this May in Hong Kong

Hongkongers can sigh a breath of relief as the city sees its fifth covid-19 wave dwindle, prompting the government to ease social distancing restrictions in phases. Although limitations on social gathering and the closure of fitness centers, as well as other leisure and entertainment venues remain, at least for two more weeks until 20 April, if you&#8217;re wondering how best to fill your social calendar, while staying safe at home, we have rounded up a list of online events worth bookmarking for weekends ahead. From online orchestra performances, yoga at home, virtual galleries and more&#8230;
50th Hong Kong Arts Festival (Until 25 April)

After two months of extraordinary musicals, opera, theatre and dance performances, art enthusiasts who haven’t yet had their fill of the city’s biggest and most high-profile cultural gig can catch the festival’s final few weeks either in-person (social-distancing regulations permitting) or online. Local and international talents; traditional and contemporary styles; a glimpse of pioneering projects in the world of arts and technology – there is still much to see and experience.
When: Until 25 April
