Hong Kong Events Calendar 2027

A month-by-month guide to what is actually on in Hong Kong in 2027, written from Temple Street Night Market in Yau Ma Tei. Each month opens with the dated events worth planning around, adds the seasonal fixtures, then the exhibitions, the courses and the tours that run all year, and finishes with practical notes for getting to the district. Where a 2027 date has not been announced yet, the page says so and gives the usual window instead of guessing.

📅 Keeping this up to date

These pages are living guides, not a fixed table. Dates are announced by organisers through the year, so each month page is revised as its programme is published — check back, or follow Discover Hong Kong and Time Out Hong Kong.

Get to the Night Market

Visitors and locals alike congregate in the evenings in Hong Kong's last remaining Night Market. The Night Market at Temple Street has been a fixture of the Jordan/Yau Ma Tei district since at least the 1920s and probably before.

Today it boasts market stalls with fashions and accessories, seafood and claypot rice in traditional Dai Pai Dong restaurants, fortunetellers and tarot card readers, and Cantonese Opera singers. Nowhere else in Hong Kong is such an interesting cross section of Hong Kong culture, cuisine, commerce and society to be found.
