重陽節

Chung Yeung Festival

Monday, 19 Oct 2026 · Hong Kong · Nationwide · Public holiday

Bridge day check

Falls on a Monday, so it makes a three-day weekend with no leave needed.

What the day is for

The autumn counterpart to Ching Ming: graves are swept again and families climb to high ground — Lion Rock, Victoria Peak, Fei Ngo Shan — following a legend about escaping calamity by ascending a hill.

Do shops and banks close?

General holiday; banks and offices close, retail open.

Getting around

Extra services to cemeteries and country-park trailheads; hiking routes are unusually crowded.

When it falls each year

Floating holidays shift; fixed ones move only in which weekday they land on.
