Hong Kong Art Week 2023
The art world focuses on Hong Kong in March with three exhibitions bringing thousands of art pieces from emerging and established artists.
As the old cliche goes ‘one man’s art though is another’s trash’ and you’ll wonder exactly what the attraction of some pieces are – but there’s enough variety that you’ll likely find a few things to discus, enjoy and perhaps even buy.

Throw away CBD Products Before 1 February
The latest changes to Hong Kong’s drug control laws – Cap 134 Dangerous Drugs Ordinance – take effect on 1 February when cannabidiol (CBD) will be criminalised and treated the same as heroin, cocaine and methamphetamine among some 200 substances classified as “dangerous drugs.” The government today reminded HongKongers to dispose of any CBD items they may have by the end of January.
“It is a tradition that families will clean their homes before the Lunar New Year, so it is a good time to throw away any CBD products to avoid violating the new law, which will soon take effect after the Lunar New Year holiday,” a government spokesperson said today.
Under the new law, possession and consumption of CBD will be subject to a maximum penalty of seven years imprisonment and a fine of HK$1 million. The penalties for the trafficking and illicit manufacturing of CBD are a maximum penalty of life imprisonment and a fine of HK$5 million.
“It is a tradition that families will clean their homes before the Lunar New Year, so it is a good time to throw away any CBD products to avoid violating the new law, which will soon take effect after the Lunar New Year holiday,” a government spokesperson said today.
