WEEKENDER: Silent Yoga Party, Charity Comedy Night, Freespace Festival and more

There’s plenty going on in HK this weekend that you won’t want to miss! Tickle your funny bone at a charity comedy night, zen out at a silent yoga party or enjoy a bottle of wine outdoors at Botellón… you’re sure to find something to help you wind down after such a busy week. It’s all in this week’s Weekender!

Get waffled 
If you fancy yourself as the next Top Chef, why not register to take part in Umami Concepts Waffle Pop Up Brunch Cooking Party? It’s all about the sweet goodness that is the waffle… Bring a buddy (because we know sharing is caring) so that you can tag team, cooking for each other with the skills you pick up from head chef Nolan Ledarney. You’ll also get to take home a free waffle iron for those lazy Saturday mornings at home.

When: 30 November, 11.30am-1pm
Where: Umami Concepts, 35 Bonham Road, Mid-Levels, Hong Kong
How much: $600 for two people . RSVP here!

Charitable laughs
In need of some comedy? Lizzie Bee, a charity working on community arts and health projects, is hosting a fundraiser comedy night. Featuring local favourites including Vivek Mahbubani, Ryan Hynek and Garron Chiu, this event promises to have you in giggles all night. And it’s all for a good cause, as the money from ticket sales will go straight to the charity. See you there!

When: 23 November, 7pm
Where: Lily & Bloom, 6/F, LKF Tower, 33 Wyndham Street, Central, Hong Kong
How much: Advance tickets are $340 and on the door, they’re $380. Tickets include a free drink and are available here.

Light it up! 
This event is for all our Sassy yogis out there! Zen out this Sunday at Sun Yat Sen Park for a truly unique yoga experience. The Yoga Room is hosting another ‘Silent Yoga Party‘ in the evening, where music and teacher instructions will only be heard through illuminated disco headphones. Imagine a sea of lights moving together in silence… magical! We can’t imagine a better way to wind down at the end of the weekend and get ready for the week ahead. Don’t forget to bring your own mat!

When: 23 November, 5-6.30pm
Where: Sun Yat Sen Memorial Park, Eastern Street North, Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong

Arts and more
It’s all been about Clockenflap in the office (we’re so excited!), but let’s not forget Freespace Fest this weekend! The art and music festival will be a melting pot of artists and audiences. You’ll be able to witness creativity at its best… from an interactive smart show, to music and dance and even theatre, it’s definitely worth checking out.

This gathering of like-minded people brings a touch of European lifestyle to Hong Kong – simply bring your own booze, make some new friends and enjoy music in an open space.
