Performances and booth activities at "Encountering Chinese Culture" Carnival cum "Vibrant ICH"

A crossover carnival under "Hong Kong ICH Month 2025" and "Encountering Chinese Culture" Carnival of the Chinese Culture Festival will be held. ICH practitioners and performing groups of Hong Kong and Jiangxi Province will participate in ICH-related performances at the carnival to showcase different but equally splendid techniques. The carnival will offer various interactive/experiential booth activities featuring both local and Jiangxi Province's ICH items, with a view to giving the public a first-hand experience with the techniques and wisdom behind ICH items of both the Mainland and Hong Kong, and heightening their awareness of and interest in Hong Kong's ICH as well as Chinese culture.

 

A brand new "ICH Mobile Centre" will visit Sha Tin District for the first time. With exhibitions and interactive installations, it incorporates learning into fun games to help everyone discover the pleasure ICH can bring.

 

More programme details will be announced soon. Please stay tuned.
