Women’s Rugby Fixtures – 1 November, 2014
Lamma Fun Day – 1 November, 2014 @ Tai Wan To Beach
Now in its 14th edition, this year’s Lamma Fun Day’s takes place on Tai Wan To (Power Station Beach), Lamma Island on Saturday 1st November 2014. The all-day event starts at noon and includes food and market stalls, a licensed bar, arts & crafts and kids’ activities, as well as live music on the beach until 10pm.
Established to raise money for development projects in Nepal run by Child Welfare Scheme (CWS), this year’s Lamma Fun Day will support a new CWS project in Nepal that works with children and young people rescued from corrupt or fake orphanages. CWS provides protection, health care, education and much needed counseling to those rescued with the main emphasis on family reunification.
“Live music is at the heart of every Lamma Fun Day and this year’s line up is truly awesome with everything from electronica and heavy metal to country music and indie rock, performed by a multinational cast,” says music coordinator Dave Wilkinson. “The event is growing from strength to strength every year thanks to the great support we get from local musicians and live music venues in Hong Kong. And what could be better than drinking a cold beer for charity on the beach in the autumn sunshine listening to some of the very best bands in Hong Kong.”
The evening line-up features metal heads DP, the return of show stoppers Shotgun Politics, indie mavericks New Tonic Press, the melodic voices of Dark Himaya and country outfit The Curs. On stage in the afternoon is the irrepressible Dr Eggs, acoustic guitar impresario Todd Warner Moore, soulful electronica hip hop trio The Anello, kids’ favourites The Hairy Family Jam Band, Pink Floyd cover band Brain Damage and kicking off the day the fascinating soundscapes of Mogulogeek. Add to this a couple of sets from sensational drumming troop Salvaje. DJ Gramophone will be spinning 78s throughout the day while DJ Barnaby Bruce rounds up the entertainment programme after dark.
Bands and musicians all donate their time for free, so the majority of money raised on the day is through sales at the licensed bar, which offers draft beer, house wines and soft drinks. There are also food stalls, donations and a charity auction that runs through the afternoon. “Come along, have fun and enjoy a great day out for charity!” says event organizer Sonya Yeung. “Our sponsors and supporters are very generous so there are always some great items to bid on in the live charity auction on the day, from original artworks and spa sessions to hotel nights and specialty wines.”
