Hong Kong’s much-loved winter pastime, the AIA Carnival, returns to the Central Harbourfront after a four-year wait!

The acrobats are limbering up and the rides are packed and ready, which can only mean one thing. The AIA Carnival is set to return to its prime position on the Central Harbourfront (after a four-year wait!), opening its gates at 4pm on Thursday, 21 December, 2023 and staying in town through the major holidays of Christmas, New Year’s Eve, Valentine’s Day and Chinese New Year. Promising to be bigger than ever, scroll through to find out what the new edition has in store for us.


What To Expect At The AIA Carnival 2023

New attractions and special events will pop up throughout the season, keeping it fresh and exciting each time you visit, but there are a few things that will be here to stay for the entire duration of the carnival.
