Sonos has released the Roam SL, a slick looking ultra-portable speaker that you can use for your music needs on the go.

We are actually quite surprised on how many electronic music production courses are available in Hong Kong. We personally like to use Ableton software to produce music, but there are a number of different options and places where you can learn to use the software and others in Hong Kong.

The Murray Hong Kong hotel has launched a brand new Selfie Studio inside the hotel.

With such a competitive restaurant market environment in Hong Kong and with such high operating costs such as rent and staffing a restaurant needs to be successful quickly.

The special Street Fighter pop up store is now open in Hong Kong at LCX, Harbour City for the next two months.

 

With the people behind Herschel Supply and Yardbird knowing each other for over two decades (before Yardbird was even opened), it makes this special Yardbird 10th birthday occasion and collaboration, just that bit more exciting.

After an busy 2 to 3 months of using the most popular dating apps (as a guy looking for a girl) in Hong Kong we thought we would share with everyone what we discovered and what we found to be the best dating app in the end for Hong Kong.

At the beginning of every October it is usually when we start to think more about Halloween. A day that is where people dress up and go out as well as have parties at restaurants, bars, clubs and even at their homes.

We have put together a list of where you can go and buy decorations for your party as well as where to get the latest costumes.

 

1. Sham Shui Po, Kowloon (Fuk Wa Street and Fuk Wing Street)

There are a number of shops that sell party items, toys, gifts and other fun items in Sham Shui Po, Kowloon (Fuk Wa Street and Fuk Wing Street). Around Halloween they add a selection of Halloween items to those searching for something fun for the night. This would be our best recommendation if you want to browse and look at them in person. If you buy a few you can even get a discount.

 

2. Pottinger Street, Central

You do get a pretty good selection of decorations and costumes in these stores located in Central. But of course the pricing is a bit higher that heading over to Kowloon.

 

3. Tai Yuen Street, Wan Chai

In and around the street markets there are some shops selling Halloween decorations and costumes. Not as much on offer as in Sham Shi Po or even Pottinger Street.

 

Other online options include...

We have used these before when looking for something unique that you can't usually find in Hong Kong. But best to give it enough time to arrive on time!

4. Amazon
5. Ebay
6. Taobao
7. Alibaba

 

Do let us know if you think we missed any place and where do you normally go?

 

If you are looking for marketing services for your public Halloween party then do get in touch with Entertaining Asia at [email protected] or call (852) 28157919.
