Get ready, music lovers! Live entertainment company Live Nation is unveiling Hong Kong\u2019s first venue purposely dedicated to live music events, so it looks like we\u2019ll have a great gig venue soon.<\/span><\/p>\n Interestingly, this music destination designed entirely in-house by the Live Nation team will be housed in the iconic ship-shaped Whampoa complex. It only makes sense that they\u2019ve named it Tides in a nod to the sea nearby and Whampoa\u2019s maritime history. Once it fully opens, Tides will be a mid-sized music venue boasting fully integrated production capabilities with top-grade sound and lightning \u2013 perfect for touring music acts looking to perform in Hong Kong.\u00a0<\/p>\n We used to have KITEC but that wasn\u2019t a venue solely dedicated to music, so we\u2019re excited to see the kind of artists and concerts that Tides will eventually host. Of course, it\u2019s not only open to music events, but also welcomes all kinds of corporate functions, brand activations, and mid-scale productions. Apart from artist support areas, Tides also contains a VIP lounge with dedicated food and beverage services for pre- and post-show gatherings, which is very rare in Hong Kong\u2019s music venues.<\/p>\n Tides will be housed in 1\/F and U1\/F of The Whampoa, and is set to open soon in autumn.
