EVENT DESCRIPTION
India by the Bay is Hong Kong’s only annual, week-long celebration of Indian arts, culture and heritage. Each year, the festival brings the soul of India and its unique diversity to the city’s shores, with a curation featuring music, dance, theatre, cinema, literature, wellness, fashion and food.
This year, the festival returns with a very special edition – celebrating its 10th anniversary in Hong Kong. India by the Bay is co-presented by the Asia Society Hong Kong Center and is set to return from November 6-12, 2025. To mark this milestone year, to mark our 10th year in Hong Kong, we’re presenting an electrifying evening of music and dance performances, free and open to the public, at Tai Kwun’s Laundry Steps on November 2, 2025.
