A new Christmas market is coming to Lee Gardens in mid-December, a few weeks after Causeway Bay opens its first Winter Wonderland as part of Hong Kong WinterFest.
The neighbourhood festivities begin on 25 November 2026 with an Elf Village and a 40-metre outdoor bar. That gives you two dates to plan around: November for an evening drink under the lights, December if you want to browse the stalls as well.
Where to find the Causeway Bay Christmas market
The market and seasonal workshops are planned for the Lee Gardens area, which stretches from Hysan Place on Hennessy Road to Lee Garden Eight on Leighton Road. Take Causeway Bay MTR Exit F2 to start at the Hennessy Road end. The wider Winter Wonderland runs until 3 January 2027.
For the market itself, the opening window announced so far is mid-December. Individual stallholders, trading hours and workshop booking details have yet to be announced.
There’s more to the December programme than shopping. Guided walks will explore Causeway Bay, and some of the neighbourhood’s upstairs shops will host cultural activities. Those are worth looking out for if you already know the malls but have rarely ventured into the smaller shops above street level.
What’s open from 25 November?
Elves’ Night Out, the 40-metre outdoor bar on Hysan Avenue, serves its first drinks from 8pm to 10pm on 25 November. From the following evening through 3 January, it opens earlier, at 5:30pm, and closes at 10pm. For an after-work visit, that leaves time for a drink before the neighbourhood light show starts at 7pm.
With children, head for Lan Fong Road and Pak Sha Road. Two building façades become windows into Santa’s workshop, where six elves are busy getting presents ready. The projections run from 7pm to 10pm, while Hysan Avenue and Yun Ping Road have street-level lights and decorations. If you’re coming in November, those four streets are where to find the village while the market is still to come.
