Hong Kong Sevens 2022

Firmly established as one of the world’s premier events, and one of the most popular annual sporting events in Asia, the Hong Kong Sevens attracts some of the world’s greatest rugby players and thousands of fans from every corner of the globe.

The tournament began in 1976 at the Hong Kong Football Club with 12 teams in front of 3,000 people. Today, it’s a three-day extravaganza of international rugby revelry with 40 teams playing in front of 120,000 spectators and World Rugby’s largest prize purse. It’s the place ‘Where the World Comes to Play.’

• For a true Hong Kong experience, add an extra night and visit Happy Valley Racecourse on the Wednesday, a fan favourite and unique experience with gambling permitted
• For first-timers, we recommend spending some of your time in the South Stand for a unique spectator experience, but be sure to get there early in the day for a great spot!
• Add hospitality or reserved seating to your package, to guarantee premium viewing and an elevated Hong Kong Sevens experience (the rest of the stadium is free seating)
• Hong Kong is more than just rugby, take some time to explore Kowloon’s markets and museums, Central’s restaurants and nightlife, and the nearby beaches and walking trails (Hong Kong is over 70% green spaces)
• Warm up for the weekend with our Welcome Function on the Friday afternoon before the main games of the day. This event is a casual get together at a venue with views just a short walk from the stadium with drinks, canapés and a special guest (last year we had Drew Mitchell pop in to talk all things rugby)

Hong Kong

Hong Kong is Asia’s World City and is culturally diverse; its rich colonial past is displayed throughout the city’s modern galleries and museums and is evident in the architecture. Hong Kong is one of the world’s finance and business hubs and is becoming renowned as the shopping and food destination of Asia. We love Hong Kong for its entertainment value; with pubs, clubs and restaurants on Hong Kong Island coming alive during the Sevens. Visitors will enjoy a relaxed atmosphere throughout the city, as locals welcome travellers from around the world. Hong Kong is a fantastic destination for sightseeing. The dramatic landscape features sprawling buildings and lush green spaces (over 70% of Hong Kong is jungle!) with the stunning Victoria Harbour separating Kowloon and Hong Kong Island. Explore hidden scenic hikes, beautiful beaches, markets and an amazing food scene—including the world’s cheapest Michelin star restaurant in North Point. There is something for everyone in this unique city.

Climate

April is on the cusp of the rainy season in Hong Kong, so you may experience some rain. You can expect highs of 29C and lows of 19C. Although the weather can be less sunny, it also means the UV is lower, which is great for watching outdoor activities like rugby and exploring a foreign city. Pack a poncho and a light jumper and don’t forget your dress-ups!
