About this event
The dates shown rest on a solid annual pattern and are unconfirmed by HKTB or LCSD. The festival runs for five days with its main day on the Birthday of the Buddha, which gov.hk lists as Thursday 13 May 2027, and the long published year table on the Cheung Chau festival site lists 10 to 14 May 2027 with 13 May as the main day, when the Piu Sik parade is held in the afternoon and the bun scrambling final follows at midnight. The Hong Kong Tourism Board and the Leisure and Cultural Services Department usually confirm the programme closer to the event.
