Lan Kwai Fong Carnival
Ladies, our little slice of nightlife paradise in the heart of Central is getting a makeover this October. The annual Lan Kwai Fong Carnival is hitting the streets once again and it’s time to get ready to boogie down with a parade of Brazilian dancers as well as indulge in some amazing street food. And of course there will be no shortage of the time-old Lan Kwai staple – alcohol, but in Carnival Bikini Beeryard. If you want to give the boozing a break, head over to one of their booths (there are over 80 of them this year, insane!) to play a few games or check out their brand new Spanish street. You’ll be livin’ la vida loca, ladies, but please do remember to drink responsibly!

When: 11-12 October, 1pm-12am
Where: Lan Kwai Fong, Central, Hong Kong
