SPIN IT TO WIN IT

Make the trek to Hong Kong’s impressive velodrome at the PRURide Six Day Series, the world’s biggest track cycling party, in Asia for its first time ever. This international cycling series serves up the thrill of racing with a party atmosphere, thanks to live DJ performances and low lighting that are more LKF than TKO. Catch the action up close inside the track, or settle for spectator stands that are still lively. Be sure to catch homegrown Olympian Sarah Lee Wai-sze compete against some of the world’s top riders while you enjoy the party.

Hong Kong Velodrome, Tseung Kwan O. Visit pruridesixday.hk.

E-MAZING RACE

Electric racing cars are taking over the streets of Hong Kong yet again for the fifth instalment of the FIA Formula E-Prix Championship. Formula E dispenses with the noise and emissions of Formula One vehicles for an eco-friendly but still competitive street race. Grandstand tickets are available but if you want to watch the action on the big screen, tickets to the Allianz E-Village are just $50.

TASTE THE TOWN

If there’s anything we take anything seriously in Hong Kong, it’s our food. Taste of Hong Kong is back this month, giving all self- confessed foodies a chance to sample gastronomic delights created by some of the city’s best chefs. Serving up small plates from their pop-up kitchens will be 12 local and international restaurants, including new kids on the block like The Flying Elk, John Anthony, Old Bailey and Blacksheep’s Artemis & Apollo. Favourites HAKU and Zuma from last year will also be returning. Wet your whistle at the whisky and wine tastings, or bring something home from the Gourmet Market. Empty stomachs essential!
