    WKCD-259 For information CC/03/2006 on 21 April 2006 Consultative Committee on the Core Arts and Cultural Facilities of the West Kowloon Cultural District Current Provision of Performing Arts Venues in Hong Kong Purpose This paper informs Members of the current provision of performance venues in Hong Kong. Existing Performance Venues 2. At present, there are 26 performance venues in Hong Kong with a total seating capacity of 75,626. Among these venues, 15 are managed by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD). Their major facilities have a maximum seating capacity of 33,379. The other 11 non-LCSD venues account for the remaining 42,247 seats. Page 1 Venues of Leisure and Cultural Services Department 3. The 15 performance venues managed by LCSD at Annex A can be broadly classified into three categories: (a) Purpose-built performing arts venues with sophisticated technical facilities capable of accommodating major and technically demanding programmes from the international touring circuit as well as established local performing arts groups, and attracting patrons from wide catchment areas. The Hong Kong Cultural Centre, Hong Kong City Hall, Kwai Tsing Theatre, Sha Tin Town Hall, Tsuen Wan Town Hall, Tuen Mun Town Hall and Yuen Long Theatre fall under this category. The Hong Kong Cultural Centre and Hong Kong City Hall are territory-wide facilities patronized by local citizens as well as international visitors. The Kwai Tsing Theatre, which is most sophistically equipped for theatrical productions, is capable of housing technically demanding programmes and is attracting audience from all over Hong Kong. Page 2 (b) Moderately-equipped venues capable of accommodating small to medium-scale performances and activities including those organized by the community.

  • Administration's Paper on Sale of Tickets for Events Held at Venues Of
    LC Paper No. CB(2)292/18-19(05) For discussion on 26 November 2018 Legislative Council Panel on Home Affairs Sale of Tickets for Events Held at Venues of the Leisure and Cultural Services Department Purpose This paper briefs Members on the measures already taken by the Government in relation to the sale of tickets for events held at venues of the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), and other options that can be considered for future implementation. Background 2. Recently, tickets for some pop concerts in Hong Kong were sold out quickly when they were made available for public sale. These tickets were subsequently traded in the market and at times sold at a price much higher than their original. There have been calls from the community that the Government should take appropriate actions such as requesting concert organisers to increase the proportion of tickets for public sale substantially. Some have also suggested that the Government should regulate or prohibit unauthorised profiteering activities on resale of event tickets (commonly known as “ticket scalping activities”) by means of law amendments or legislation. 3. Entertainment programmes are generally commercial activities in Hong Kong and even across the world. The content, ticket pricing, sales strategies, and channels are business decisions made by organisers who have to bear all the commercial risks. Like other commercial activities, not every production can be guaranteed a full house or a profit. The public are free to choose whether or not to buy a ticket based on their interests and ticket prices. On the other hand, with the advancement in technology and the rise of shared economy on the Internet in recent years, many online ticket resale agents have emerged and provided a convenient channel for trading of - 1 - programme tickets.

  • Recreation, Sport and the Arts
    367 Chapter 19 Recreation, Sport and the Arts Hong Kong is well known for its hard- working people, but it is not an all-work- no-play city. People spend time in a wide variety of recreational, sport and cultural activities, ranging from ‘tai chi’ to yoga, football to rugby, and international arts festivals to home-grown performances. Hong Kong offers many opportunities for people to unwind. Recreation, sport and the arts provide an opportunity for people in Hong Kong to improve their quality of life. The Government helps to nurture an environment in which creative freedom, a pluralist approach to the development of the arts, sporting excellence and recreation can thrive. Government policies on matters concerning sport, recreation, culture and heritage are coordinated by the Home Affairs Bureau. Organisations that help to draw up these policies include the Hong Kong Sports Commission, the Hong Kong Sports Institute, the former Culture and Heritage Commission, the Hong Kong Arts Development Council and the Antiquities Advisory Board. The Hong Kong Sports Institute Limited was set up as a delivery agent to help develop sports in Hong Kong with special emphasis on training athletes for high- performance sports. In January 2005, the Government established the Sports Commission to advise on all matters related to sports development. The commission oversees the Elite Sports Committee, the Major Sports Events Committee and the Community Sports Committee which give advice on different aspects of sporting activities. The new advisory structure is a milestone for sports development in Hong Kong. The Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), an executive arm of the Home Affairs Bureau, provides leisure and cultural services to the community, preserves its cultural heritage, beautifies its physical environment, and fosters synergy among sports, cultural and community organisations.
