Pop Culture Festival returns in Apr
The Hong Kong Pop Culture Festival presented by the Leisure & Cultural Services Department will return in April for its fourth edition.
Under the theme “Beyond Fantasy”, the festival will explore what happens when ideas collide, inviting audiences to experience how creators across generations – through boundless imagination – reshape the distinctive character of Hong Kong's pop culture and turn the impossible into the possible.
It will present about 20 programmes and over 120 events, including stage performances, film screenings, thematic exhibitions, library programmes and outreach activities.
Concert “Dreamscape” will be the opening programme, co-curated by Chu Wan-pin, winner of the 43rd Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Original Film Score and an erhu virtuoso, and local musician Vicky Fung. The programme blends soundtracks, pop music, street dance and art technology into a musical feast.
Other programmes include the mega outdoor music carnival “ImagineLand”; outdoor installation “Pop Unboxed”; film screening “Fantasies in Reality: A Cinematic Journey” and “Restored Treasures - 'The Kid'”.
