Hong Kong Events Calendar 2027

Eight events have published Hong Kong dates for 2027 so far, and one of them is in Sham Shui Po: the Lunar New Year Fair, which opens on the last day of January. The rest are at the Convention Centre in Wan Chai, apart from CanJam, whose venue is still to be confirmed, and neither the centre's own 2027 calendar nor the Trade Development Council's 2027 event list goes past September, which is as far ahead as anything here can be dated. The months below carry the dates as published; where a month has none yet — February, March and June as well as October to December — it says where the date will appear.

The year's one event in Sham Shui Po

Lunar New Year Fair, Sham Shui Po

Lunar New Year Fair, Sham Shui Po — Cheung Sha Wan Playground and Fa Hui Park. Opens Sunday 31 January 2027 and runs seven days to the morning of Saturday 6 February 2027. 92 stalls at Cheung Sha Wan and 126 at Fa Hui Park, ten minutes up Cheung Sha Wan Road from Apliu Street.

Why it is here rather than in a month: the fair's seven days run from January into February, so it belongs to the year and to neither month.

January 2027

HKTDC Toys & Games Fair and Pop & Play

HKTDC Hong Kong Toys & Games Fair, with the Pop & Play 潮玩館 collector-toy hall inside it — 11–14 January 2027 at HKCEC, Wan Chai; Pop & Play runs 10–13 January. Pop & Play is open to the public at HK$40 a person (free for children under 3 and visitors 65 and over): 10 January 10:30–18:30, 11–13 January 09:30–18:30. The main halls are trade buyers only, 18 and over, HK$100 to register, 09:30–18:30 on 11–13 January and 09:30–17:00 on 14 January.

New Year's Day, Friday 1 January, is the month's only public holiday, and the Lunar New Year Fair opens on Sunday 31 January.

February 2027

February carries the New Year holidays: Lunar New Year's Day on Saturday 6 February, then Monday 8 and Tuesday 9, with the second day falling on the Sunday and the fourth day taken in substitution. The fair that opened on 31 January clears its site at 07:00 on Saturday 6 February; the district's own holiday-week programme is published about four to six weeks ahead, so February's dates are re-checked by mid-January 2027.

March 2027

No event on this street's patch has a March 2027 date yet. The month has three Easter holidays — Good Friday 26 March, Saturday 27 and Easter Monday 29 — and the district venues publish their spring programme about four to six weeks ahead, so March is re-checked by mid-February 2027.

April 2027

HKTDC Electronics Fair (Spring Edition) with InnoEX

HKTDC Hong Kong Electronics Fair (Spring Edition) with the InnoEX 香港國際創科展 halls in the same building — 13–16 April 2027 at HKCEC, Wan Chai. Trade buyers only, 18 and over.

CanJam Hong Kong 2027

CanJam Hong Kong 2027 — headphones, IEMs and portable audio, organiser Head-Fi.org — 17–18 April 2027 at a venue to be confirmed.

Ching Ming Festival falls on Monday 5 April, and the two shows open the week after that. One is closed to the public and one is not, which is worth knowing before you plan the weekend around them.

May 2027

Hong Kong Comic Con 2027

Hong Kong Comic Con 2027 — 28–30 May 2027, Hall 1, HKCEC, Wan Chai. Friday and Saturday 10:00–20:00 (last entry 19:30), Sunday 10:00–19:00.

Labour Day falls on Saturday 1 May and the Birthday of the Buddha on Thursday 13 May, twelve days apart with no bridge between them.

June 2027

June 2027 has one public holiday, Tuen Ng on Wednesday 9 June, and no dated listing of its own: nothing in Sham Shui Po and none of the Convention Centre's public fairs has a published June date yet. The next dated event is ACGHK, at the end of July.

July 2027

ACGHK 2027, the 28th Ani-Com & Games Hong Kong

ACGHK 2027, the 28th Ani-Com & Games Hong Kong — 23–27 July 2027, Halls 1, 3 and 5, HKCEC, Wan Chai (dates announced by the organiser on 28 October 2026; daily hours not confirmed).

The Establishment Day holiday is on Thursday 1 July, three weeks before the show opens.

August 2027

HKTDC Home Delights Expo 2027

HKTDC Home Delights Expo 2027 — 12–16 August 2027 at HKCEC, Wan Chai. Public fair.

August 2027 has no general holiday — one of only two months in the year without one.

The Hong Kong Computer & Communications Festival, run by the Chamber of Hong Kong Computer Industry, is the week when the city buys computer hardware in one hall. Its 2027 dates are on the organiser's own site at hkccf-expo.com; check there before you book.

September 2027

Salon de TIME 2027

Salon de TIME 2027 — the public hall of HKTDC's watch week — 7–11 September 2027 at HKCEC, Wan Chai. The trade Watch & Clock Fair runs the same five days.

Mid-Autumn falls after the show's five days, in the middle of the month: the festival is Wednesday 15 September 2027, and the holiday is the Thursday after it.

October 2027

October 2027 has two Friday holidays, National Day on 1 October and Chung Yeung Festival on 8 October, and each makes a three-day weekend. No event on this street's patch has a published October date yet: the city's trade-show autumn — the electronics, gifts and housewares shows that follow one another at the Convention Centre through the second half of the month — is dated about six to nine months ahead, so October is re-checked by August 2027. The dates appear first on hktdc.com for the electronics and gifts fairs, and on hkcec.com for everything at the Convention Centre.

November 2027

November 2027 has no general holiday — the only month besides August without one — and nothing on this street's patch has a published November date yet. Two things shape the month once they are dated: the Hong Kong International Wine & Spirits Fair takes the Convention Centre for a few days early in the month, and HKTB's WinterFest season opens and runs through Christmas into January. Both are published close to the event, on discoverhongkong.com and hktdc.com, so November is re-checked by September 2027.

December 2027

December 2027 has Christmas Day on Saturday 25 December, and because the 26th is a Sunday the holiday that follows it lands on Monday 27 — a three-day weekend for most of the city. No dated listing yet: the winter shopping shows run from mid-December into January, the CMA's Brands and Products Expo in Victoria Park and the year-end shows at the Convention Centre, and their 2027 dates are published around September (on cma.org.hk and hktdc.com), so December is re-checked by September 2027.

Public holidays in 2027

The Government's gazetted 2027 list: 17 general holidays. The second day of Lunar New Year falls on a Sunday, so the fourth day is taken in substitution; Mid-Autumn itself is Wednesday 15 September 2027; there is no holiday in August or in November.

Date Public holiday
Friday 1 January New Year's Day
Saturday 6 February Lunar New Year's Day
Monday 8 February The third day of Lunar New Year
Tuesday 9 February The fourth day of Lunar New Year
Friday 26 March Good Friday
Saturday 27 March The day following Good Friday
Monday 29 March Easter Monday

Thursday 16 September The day following the Mid-Autumn Festival
Friday 1 October National Day
Friday 8 October Chung Yeung Festival
Saturday 25 December Christmas Day
Monday 27 December The first weekday after Christmas Day

Mid-Autumn itself is Wednesday 15 September 2027, so the lanterns are up on the Wednesday night and the holiday is the Thursday after it.

Flea market and Piece Goods

The Electronics Flea Market and the Piece goods shops are the most famous parts of Aplui Street, but this important street has a long history and even now is home to a vibrant community.

Look out for the photography equipment shops, and spend some time in the public sitting out areas.

Finally don't miss all the nearby attractions.
