Held annually each summer, Hong Kong’s Festival Canada offers a selection of international food, arts, culture, and sports, all viewed through the lens of the Hong Kong perspective. As such, it makes an incredibly interesting and educational attraction for the culture-minded tourist visiting Hong Kong or China in general. The events offered each year are numerous and include Ice Skating, dramatic plays, and a massive street party held on the 30th of June.
The festival, which is held each year in the streets of Lan Kwai Fong, is a unique opportunity for a tourist to get a sampling of both local and foreign culture, all in an atmosphere that provides for a riotously fun time. Children are also bound to be entertained by the many “Family Days” that are interspersed throughout the festival’s other events. Further information about the festival can be had by contacting the Hong Kong Canadian Consulate.
