Art Basel Hong Kong 2027

Art Basel Hong Kong 2027 is the Hong Kong edition of Art Basel, one of the world's best-known art fair brands. It takes place in Hong Kong from 25 to 27 March 2027. It is for collectors, gallery visitors, art lovers, cultural tour groups and anyone planning a spring trip to Hong Kong during the city's busiest week for art.

About Art Basel Hong Kong

Art Basel runs fairs in several cities around the world, and its Hong Kong show is its fair in Asia. The organiser says its Hong Kong fair sits in the centre of Asia's international art scene and offers a premier platform for renowned artists and galleries.

According to the official website, the fair features premier galleries from Asia and beyond. It aims to give an in-depth overview of the Asia-Pacific region's diversity, alongside global artistic perspectives through modern and contemporary works. Visitors can expect:

• gallery booths with painting, sculpture, photography, installation and new media;
• work by established names and emerging artists from Asia and around the world;
• talks, films and related programmes, as published by the organiser.

The fair also brings a wider "art week" feeling to the city. Museums such as M+ and the Hong Kong Palace Museum in the West Kowloon Cultural District, plus many commercial galleries, are popular stops for visitors during the same trip.
