Friendship Festivals
We all love fun and games. What is better than having fun and playing games? An afternoon of fun and games with a lot of people and the promise of new friendships, of course!
The UKHK is organising a series of Friendship Festivals in May and June across the UK, so we can all have fun together – Hong Kongers, churches and communities, and everyone in the neighbourhood! Come join the fun and make new friends!
UKHK aims to welcome people from Hong Kong to the UK by providing information on UK society and culture, and connecting people together locally. Our Friendship Festivals are open to everyone to celebrate Hong Kong and UK cultures and a chance for friendships to be formed.

UKHK welcomes local and national organisations working to support new arrivals from Hong Kong to take part in Friendship Festivals and celebrates working in partnership with others. In doing so we hope to make Hong Kongers aware of what local support and opportunities are available, and for the local communities to recognise the contribution that people from Hong Kong can make to local life.
