  • Chapter 3: Venue Support for Performing Arts Groups
    Chapter 3: Venue Support for Performing Arts Groups Introduction 3.1 LCSD manages 13 performing arts venues. Based on the design, roles and functions of the facilities, they can be classified into two broad categories: 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. Some of these facilities are multi-purpose in design, and may be adapted for different types of events such as concerts, theatrical and multi-arts performances. 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. Among these venues, the Hong Kong Cultural Centre and the Hong Kong City Hall are territory-wide facilities patronized by local citizens as well as international visitors while 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. - 43 - Moderately-equipped venues capable of accommodating small to medium-scale performances and activities including those organized by the community. The Ko Shan Theatre, Sheung Wan Civic Centre, Ngau Chi Wan Civic Centre, Sai Wan Ho Civic Centre, North District Town Hall and Tai Po Civic Centre fall under this category. Except for the Ko Shan Theatre, all other venues under this category are located in joint-user buildings with other municipal, sports, school or social welfare uses.

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.

  • 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.
