The annual Hong Kong Wine and Dine Festival in late October will extend its opening hours until 1am on two nights and feature 10 per cent more booths, with the Tourism Board rolling out a gourmet month throughout November to boost visitor spending and encourage longer stays.
Organised by the board under the theme “Taste the World’s Best”, the festival will be held from October 29 to November 1 at the Central Harbourfront, opening at 7.30pm on the first day and 1pm on the following days. The board expects the event to attract 168,000 visitors this year, slightly higher than last year’s 160,000 attendees.
For the first time, the event will extend its opening hours until 1am on October 30 and 31. The four-day festival will be followed by the “Hong Kong Gourmet Month” in November, featuring more luxury dining activities.
“Through these initiatives, we aim to encourage visitors to stay longer and spend more, creating additional business opportunities for the trade,” board chairman Peter Lam Kin-ngok said on Wednesday.
