Often it's a bright coloured t-shirt or something orange themed. Have a look at past photos of meetups to recognise him. Moreover, we usually stand close to the bar. **Venue** 📍 **The Beer Bay** is an **outdoor kiosk/bar**, situated at the walkway between the Central Ferry Piers, at the ground level **entrance of Central Ferry Pier #4** (to Lamma Island). There's plenty of space to stand, and various places to get drinks. Usually lots of people in conversation, and an overall casual and relaxed atmosphere. In summer it can get hot and sweaty, and winter a bit cold, but drinks are refreshing and nothing beats that skyline! **Toilets** 🚻 There is a public toilet at the end of the piers near pier 2, or you could walk to the IFC shopping mall nearby. **Drinks** 🍺🍷🍹🥤 The Beer Bay serves refreshing alcoholic drinks, such as cold drafts, wine and plenty of mixers too. There are also non-alcoholic options from other stands and convenience stores around as well. See you on Friday May 22!

Local fishermen invited the image of the deity Pak Tai to the island; parading it through the streets was believed to drive away evil spirits. Villagers dressed as other deities (the origin of today’s Piu Sik parade) to inspect every corner of the island and restore peace. Over time, the ritual expanded with bun towers symbolising gratitude and protection. The modern form, including the famous bun-snatching competition, has been held annually (with a brief COVID hiatus) and now coincides with Buddha’s Birthday, blending Taoist roots with broader cultural appeal. It was recognised as part of China’s national intangible cultural heritage in 2011. **Cultural Significance** Rooted in Taoist traditions, this festival began over two centuries ago as a community ritual to ward off plague and evil spirits. It has evolved into one of Hong Kong’s most vibrant heritage celebrations and is now listed as a national intangible cultural heritage. **Transportation** Easy ferry ride from Central Pier 5 to Cheung Chau (approximately 45–60 minutes). **Atmosphere** Expect lively energy and large crowds, especially on the main parade day. The island transforms into a colourful, festive hub filled with traditional performances.

Please be considerate and helpful with our team – we are all volunteers. 2. We run all our event communication through WhatsApp. Please keep track of event related messages in the Whatsapp event group and respond to requests and instructions from organisers within 24hrs.
