Come for the festivities, stay for the culture

Sometimes we’re just itching to go on a holiday, but we can’t decide when or where to go. That’s when we create a global calendar and start planning a trip around festivals, big events and celebrations. Attending a festival overseas is a great way to experience the local culture and traditions up close, with the locals themselves.

And who says the most happening festivals are in Europe or the US? If you’re on a budget, Asia and Oceania are popping with lively celebrations. For every Coachella and Oktoberfest, we have a Wonderfruit and Tokyo Ramen Show to keep us grooving and salivating. So pull up your own global calendar and get ready to mark these dates down!

Where: Hong Kong

When: 9-11 November 2018

One of the most anticipated music festivals in the world each year, and Hong Kong’s biggest, Clockenflap returns this year with an exciting line-up. Only the first round of its line-up has been announced, but that already sets the stage for perhaps the most eclectic show yet. There’s not just the big names like Khalid and Interpol, but also alternative-rock band Wolf Alice and various indie bands. Keeping the festival’s unique East-meets-West theme alive, we’ll also see many Asian and Mandopop artists taking the stage at the Central Harbourfront.
