Hong Kong & Stanley Events Calendar 2026
Stanley Market runs all year, but the village, the beach and the water in front of it come alive with dated events through the late-autumn and winter months. This is the 2026 year hub: it links the month-by-month listings that cover Stanley's own events alongside the city-wide Hong Kong events worth planning a trip around. Every date on the month pages is checked against the organiser and at least one other independent source, and anything still provisional is labelled as such.

What is on in Stanley in 2026
The two events that put Stanley itself on the calendar are the Hong Kong Open Wingfoil Championships, raced off Stanley Main Beach in November 2026, and the Stanley Plaza Seaside Christmas Market, the annual December market in the plaza beside Murray House. Around those, Stanley's beaches host the LCSD watersports race calendar — windsurfing, kayaking and short-board races through the cooler months — and the village sits close to the country-park trail races on the Hong Kong Island hills at Tai Tam.
Because Stanley is a Southern District day trip rather than a city centre, these pages also list the Hong Kong events that Stanley visitors actually travel to: the harbour-front festivals in Central, the West Kowloon cultural season, the big charity hikes and, in early 2027, the Chinese New Year programme. Read the month pages for the dates and the sourcing behind each one.
