Top Things to Do in Hong Kong in August

Opera Hong Kong’s production of The Magic Flute in 2009

Can you believe it’s August already? It’s a special month, and there are many reasons why. We’re in the middle of summer and there is plenty on – from new shopping spots to explore to musicals, and even a summer pool party to remember, it’s shaping up to be a phenomenal season and this month is just the beginning. Whip out your diaries and mark these important dates.

Opera Hong Kong presents The Magic Flute

(See the featured image above)

Make sure you jot down this event and start booking your tickets because it’s not one to miss. Opera Hong Kong presents Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte, The Magic Flute, featuring exceptional operatic talent that will take your breath away. This production will be set in a Chinese cultural context and include Cantonese dialogue and costumes. It features soloists and a live orchestra as part of the set on the stage which is sure to captivate Hong Kong audiences.

The story revolves around the forces of good versus evil, and it represents the culmination of Mozart’s creative genius and versatility. Written in 1791, the final year of his life, the opera is renowned for its extremely challenging vocal requirements. Both arias sung by the Queen of the Night are some of the most famous and challenging in the standard operatic repertoire, featuring some of the highest notes required to be sung by a soprano in any opera. The minimalist stage setting allows the audience to see the integration of all the musical parts of the production and provides a highly accessible platform for first-time and frequent opera-goers alike.

When: August 25–26, 2018

Where: Concert Hall, Hong Kong City Hall

How much: HKD $380, HKD $280, HKD $180, HKD $100
