2024 Hong Kong Dragon Boat Festival

The Dragon Boat Festival keeps up the age-old tradition of Dragon Boat Racing with a fleet of both traditional custom made teak boats and modern fiberglass boats, all of which conform to the International Dragon Boat Federation standards and are approved for International Dragon Boat Racing. All boats are colorfully decorated with a hand painted dragon head at the front and tail at the rear making them works of art gliding across the water. Each boat is powered by up to 20 members consisting of a drummer, a steersperson, and paddlers. In addition to the races, this eventful weekend is filled with live performances, delicious food, interesting crafts, and much more!
