Anyone know if there will be any event in HK for this upcoming Dragon Boat festival?

Personally I wouldn’t bother. It is sheer hell trying to get in our out.
Actually I’ll restate that. If you’ve never been you should tick it off the bucket list but be prepared for travel issues both ways especially in light of this, if it is up to date

Won't be nearly as busy as in the good old days... far fewer teams competing and a much smaller event overall. Training only started a few weeks back and I'm not sure Stanley have even received police clearance for the event yet.
Well worth coming down and making a day of it.
They are going to infect the fishes with Covid and cross infect everyone in the vincinity!
and justify their reason for closing the beaches.. hmmmOriginal Post Deleted
That’s exactly how I feel about the HK Sevens. Fantastic when your business conference in Asia finishes to time up with the 7s. I went 4 times before I moved here permanently. Living here it’s just a pain in the backside and I’ve gone as a host once. BUT a resumption of the 7s (will it be new stadium?) will be more than welcome for the benefit of HKs bars, restaurants, hospitality etc and the familiar touts on the Lockhart/Luard junction.
The annual conference was deliberately moved in the end. The carnage of long lunches, missed flights, missed meetings, calls etc just became too much. I could never establish if it was our industry or the Hedge Fund conf that effectively ruined a room at Shangri-La destined for a wedding reception the following day. That would have been in the late 2000s
