Internationally-acclaimed horse racing event returns to Hong Kong

Hong Kong's premier international horse racing event, the Longines Hong Kong International Races, returns to Sha Tin Racecourse on December 10. This annual Turf World Championships are a highlight of the international horseracing calendar, where a stellar cast of top-notch horses and jockeys will compete for prizes in four Group 1 races.

Besides witnessing the fierce competition of world-class jockeys, the Parade Ring is set to be a night of fantastic entertainment. For starters, award-winning Asian singer Karen Mok will headline the opening with a show-stopping live performance, complete with a set list that will send the heat flaring.

“I am honoured to be part of this iconic race day. Join me at this electrifying and meaningful live music show, from which all proceeds will be donated to support charity initiatives,” says Mok. “I look forward to showing support with you for the local and overseas racing elites at Sha Tin Racecourse on Dec 10!”

Meanwhile, one of China’s top three tenors, Warren Mok, will perform the national anthem accompanied by the Hong Kong Police Band. Emerging stars from TVB’s talent show STARS Academy, including Duncan How, Janees Wong, Lolita Tsoi, and Archie Sin, will also entertain spectators throughout the event. Exquisite thematic food and drinks will be served to complement the sporting and entertainment programs. 

Additionally, virtual racing simulations in collaboration with Asia Motion E-Sports will be available in an interactive gaming zone of E-biking, E-running, E-boxing, and E-kayak, among other experiences. Racing fans of all ages can experience what it’s like to train as a jockey by honing physical strength, stamina and speed.

Better still, participants stand to win fabulous prizes throughout the day and enjoy a spectacular fireworks grand finale. With A-list entertainment and world-class racing under the twilight sky, the Longines Hong Kong International Races is poised to be an unforgettable extravaganza.
