New England Hong Kong Festival is a community-run festival dedicated to bringing the Hongkonger community together and celebrating Hong Kong culture. Through food, music, performances, games, and interactive activities, we hope to create a space for people to gather and build connections, exchange stories and experiences, and for those with a connection to Hong Kong to find a sense of home and belonging.
