About this event
The Government gazetted list for 2027 on gov.hk lists the Ching Ming Festival on Monday 5 April 2027. Families visit ancestral graves and memorial sites across the territory, so cemeteries, columbaria and the transport routes serving them are especially busy. Visitors should expect a quieter, more reflective day at heritage sites and heavier traffic near major burial grounds.
