17th December 2025 – (Hong Kong) One of Hong Kong’s largest festive fairs returns as Stanley Plaza’s Christmas Market transforms the waterfront into a seasonal showcase from 19th to 28th December 2025. Visitors can expect themed decorations, artisanal stalls and illuminated displays, with Murray House traditionally hosting complementary attractions such as pop‑ups and charity activations.
This year’s edition, themed “Merry Gingermas”, will feature around 100 booths selling crafts, locally made products and a wide range of ginger‑inspired treats. A curated gallery will present works by Hong Kong artists centred on the ginger motif. In previous years, the market has hosted more than 120 vendors offering handcrafted goods, festive snacks and pet gifts, alongside debuts and crowd favourites including DEIGREEN ice cream, Wun Kee Eggrolls, HoWong Brewing craft beers, and a four‑metre twinkling Christmas tree.
The most convenient way to reach Stanley is by bus along the scenic southside route from Central; Citybus 6 and 6X operate frequent services from Exchange Square. Event organisers will also run free shuttle buses from Admiralty. Additional route options are available via the Stanley Plaza transport guide.
To support the event, the Transport Department announced special traffic and public transport arrangements from 19th to 28th December:
- Road closures: Stanley New Street (between Stanley Village Road and Stanley Market Road) will be closed daily from 11am to 9pm, except for local residents, Police, emergency vehicles and permit‑holders.
- Pedestrian precincts: Stanley Main Street and Stanley Market Road will be pedestrian‑only on 22nd – 23rd December from 11am to 9pm, and on 19th – 21st and 24th – 28th December from 11am to 11pm.
- Enhanced services: Citybus routes 6X, 63, 65 and 260, and green minibus routes 40, 40X and 52 will be strengthened subject to demand.
Authorities anticipate heavy traffic in and around Stanley during the market. The public is advised to use public transport or the organiser’s free shuttle service where possible. Given limited parking at Stanley Plaza, motorists without reserved spaces should avoid driving to the area. Drivers should expect congestion, remain patient and follow Police instructions.
