The Ultimate 2025 Hong Kong Beach Festival Guide: What to Wear, Bring & Expect

Thinking of hitting a beach festival in Hong Kong this year? Here’s your all-in-one guide so you know what to wear, what to pack, and how to have the best time. Doesn't matter if you’re a first-timer or festival pro.

Why beach festivals are big in HK now

Hong Kong’s coastal spots are the perfect playground for DJs, sunset sessions and festival vibes. From wakeboarding to open-air stages, it’s more than just music, in fact it’s summer done right.

What to wear to a Hong Kong beach festival

Think comfy, breathable and fun. Light tees, quick-dry swim shorts, bikinis or cover-ups work great. Flip-flops or waterproof sandals are your best friend. Bring a hat, sunnies, and maybe a light layer for the cool night breeze.

🎒 Essentials to pack

1. Waterproof bag (sand happens)

2. Sunscreen (you’ll thank us later)

3. Reusable water bottle

4. Small towel

5. Power bank for your phone (you’ll be taking pics non-stop)

6. ID & festival QR code (don’t get stuck at the gate!)

How to make the most of it

Check set times early, catch sunset sets, then dive into the party after dark. If there are activities like water inflatables or pop-up bars, don’t be shy, like try everything! Make friends, snap lots, respect the beach.

Bonus: Hong Kong’s wildest beach festival?

Coming May, 2026, Discovery Bay hosts Lets B Mad Beach Festival. 3 days of DJs, wakeboarding, local acts and real beach chaos (the good kind).
