Hong Kong, mainland stars to perform at ‘historic’ Kai Tak Sports Park opening

By Lo Hoi-ying

Athletes and entertainment stars from both Hong Kong and mainland China will take part in a ceremony to celebrate the opening of Kai Tak Sports Park next month.

Chief Secretary Eric Chan Kwok-ki said on Tuesday that the park’s main stadium would host the “grand” ceremony on the evening of March 1, the official opening date.

The city’s No 2 official also addressed the busy Lunar New Year holiday and said Hong Kong had been bustling with visitors, as January recorded the highest monthly number of tourists in the post-pandemic period.

He hailed the coming ceremony to mark the opening of the sports hub in Kai Tak as a major achievement.

“The official opening of Kai Tak Sports Park is a historic moment for Hong Kong,” Chan said before the weekly meeting of the key decision-making Executive Council.

“There will be representatives from the sports and cultural sectors from the mainland and Hong Kong.”
