Fresh off their Clockenflap performance, this British DJ duo is hoping to bring some of their mixtape magic to the halls of LKF. While their sterling collection of 90’s hip-hop classics got a few foot moving along the Kowloon waterfront two weeks ago, a 1:30pm show time definitely puts them at a disadvantage. Now with a later start and a ginned up crowd, expect a lot of moving and shaking.

Sometimes there’s nothing like a little dinner and a movie to help settle scuttled nerves after a long week of work. So grab dinner then head down to Central’s waterfront area to check out Very Hong Kong’s screenings of the classic comedy “The Private Eye” and “The Missing Home”.

On Saturday and Sunday, the waterfront park will host the Free Space Face, where artists will present outdoor works and audiences will be able to bring in their own activities. According to the festival’s website, the event “is geared towards interactivity and audience involvement allowing everyone to create their own idea of what ‘Freespace’ means: whether picnicking, bike riding, dancing or playing games.
