Feel Your Heart Beat – Tai Kwun’s 5th Anniversary

EVENT DESCRIPTION

For over half a decade, Tai Kwun has delighted and enlightened visitors and guests, immersing them in arts, culture and heritage. This month Tai Kwun celebrates its fifth anniversary, inviting you to feel your heart beat with us, as we unveil spectacular performances and exhibitions that honour the community for helping to transform the compound into the extraordinary space it is today and will continue to be in the future.

Since opening its doors to the public five years ago, the heritage site has come alive with culture, heritage and internationally renowned art exhibitions, musical and performing arts performances, films, docent tours and more. Over 12 million visitors have visited Tai Kwun over the years, enjoying the 3,900 programmes that have graced the galleries, venues and shops within the compound.

While The Hong Kong Jockey Club conserved and revitalised Tai Kwun, and through its Charities Trust provides the core funding for Tai Kwun’s arts and heritage programmes, Tai Kwun belongs to the people of Hong Kong as they are the true owners of the heritage site. In celebration of its fifth anniversary, Tai Kwun is launching a myriad of exciting art and culture programmes under the Feel Your Heart Beat initiative, bringing back treasured moments while creating new transformative experiences that touch the community to become the vibrant heart of Hong Kong. The abstract form of a beating heart represents Tai Kwun’s mission in promoting cultural participation and community engagement, and visitors are invited to experience the city’s finest artistic and cultural delights, all the while feeling their hearts beat inside the historical compound of Tai Kwun.

Welcoming all to come along and be immersed in the familiar environment alongside one’s favourite people to truly feel at home, Tai Kwun is celebrating the milestone with heartfelt programmes such as Unfurl, Stepping Up, Hidden Spaces Tour, HOPE—Patricia Piccinini and limited-time visitor gifts along with an exclusive TK Fan giveaway.
