80,000 Attend Art Basel Hong Kong 2018: Asia’s Biggest Art Fair

Hong Kong is well-known as a city of diverse cultures, hence events like the world-renown Art Basel Hong Kong show and market, which took place in March at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC), where it attracted an overall attendance of 80,000 people. Not to mention in the next few years the city is focusing on plans such as building the West Kowloon Cultural District (WKCD). The WKCD will be an international-grade Arts and Culture hub that will provide diverse events including Choral Concerts, Cantonese Opera and much more– built just in time to complement Gay Games 11 Hong Kong 2022!  #GGHK2022 plans to use the WKCD as the perfect venue to showcase our Arts and Culture events. The Gay Games will be an amazing opportunity to bring LGBT+-led arts into the general community and Asian cultural elements to the global LGBT+ community.  
Other highlights of Art Basel Hong Kong include:
Art Basel Hong Kong has become an essential stop on the global fair circuit, and this year was no exception! With approximately 80,000 people in attendance over the 3 day event, this year is definitely the largest and most robust yet.
Attendees of this year’s Art Basel Hong Kong were able to view almost any kind of contemporary art their hearts desired, from galleries representing 32 countries and territories. Art was showcased from all around the world, including the obvious: London, Paris, Hong Kong, and New York, but also from lesser-known places such as Yogyakarta, Zug, and Cluj.
Approximately 248 galleries were able to showcase their wares in a marketplace that has been expertly primed to encourage commerce. Over the past 5 years Art Basel Hong Kong has become a destination for international collectors hungry for paintings, sculptures, videos and installations of all types.
Hosting the 2022 Gay Games in Hong Kong for the first time will be a simply amazing experience for all. For people who have never been to Asia, it will be a chance to experience the kindness, the culture, the food and the different ways of life of this part of the world. For the local LGBT+ community, it will be a wonderful opportunity to step out of the dark and into the light. It will be a never-to-be-forgotten experience to participate, to strive for their personal best and to feel the inclusiveness of joining in sport and of attending artistic and cultural events together with more than 15,000 participants. Show your support and stay up to date on all important Gay Games 11 Hong Kong 2022 announcements by following us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
