Venues in Ngau Tau Kok

Getting there

Ngau Tau Kok station is on the Kwun Tong line, between Kowloon Bay and Kwun Tong. Cross Kwun Tong Road to the south and you are among the industrial buildings, the nearest a few minutes' walk away. Venues further east can also be reached from Kwun Tong station, and those towards the north-west from Kowloon Bay station.

Kwun Tong Road has many bus stops with routes from Hong Kong Island and across Kowloon. Some industrial buildings have car parks, but spaces are limited, especially on holidays.

What venues are like here

Venues are mainly in the industrial buildings south of Kwun Tong Road, continuous with the Kwun Tong industrial area. Units are generally large and used as party rooms, photo studios, dance studios and mahjong rooms. Party rooms usually have karaoke, consoles and board games, and some have BBQ equipment.

North of Kwun Tong Road is mostly housing, both public estates and private developments, so venues are concentrated to the south. Night-time gate and lift arrangements differ by building, so read the venue page before booking.

What it's good for
