Concerts & Special Events


Overview

AsiaWorld-Arena (Also known as Hall 1 and located on the East side of AsiaWorld-Expo) is a purpose-built entertainment venue, with Hong Kong's largest indoor seated area. Boasting a total floor space of 10,880 square metres, a maximum capacity of 13,500 and 19 metre-high ceiling clearance, this world-class Arena is ideally suited for a wide variety of large-scale events. To date, the Arena has hosted a range of concerts, entertainment extravaganzas, sporting spectaculars, large-scale conferences and corporate functions.

A key advantage is the flexibility of the Arena, allowing for local and international superstars to host concerts of different scales, ranging from intimate and personal performances to breathtaking large-scale shows.

The venue has already staged a wide spectrum of events, including international concerts by Avril Lavigne, Christina Aguilera, Eric Clapton, John Legend, Oasis and Westlife.

Large-scale entertainment and sporting events, such as the 10th Anniversary Celebration Gala of Phoenix Satellite Television, the Miss Chinese Cosmos Pageant, the K-1 World Grand Prix 2007 and the 2008 Hong Kong IDSF Asian Pacific DanceSport Championships have also enjoyed the Arena’s impressive facilities.

Recognising these technical and creative capabilities, a massive 450° revolving stage - built at the Arena for local singing sensation Aaron Kwok’s sell-out tour - won Guinness Record status in 2008 as the largest-ever revolving stage. Most importantly, the record-breaking structure brought the Hong Kong pop-star thrilling close to his appreciative fans, and has placed AsiaWorld-Arena firmly on the map as a stunning entertainment venue.

"The seating capacity, environment, audio and venue facilities made AsiaWorld-Arena the perfect stage for Placido Domingo. Being Hong Kong's largest indoor seated venue, the Arena's spacious environment and high ceiling clearance provided a highly desirable venue for Domingo’s vocal performance. We also appreciated the high quality backstage facilities, including bathrooms, laundry and kitchen. The success of Domingo's concert put to rest any concerns about the suitability of such a large venue for classical music. The concert received an overwhelming response from the audience. "
- Roks Lam, Chairman, Wolfman Jack Entertainment
