Sunday
Red Bull Flugtag @ West Kowloon Cultural District May 11
Red Bull Flugtag returns to Hong Kong this weekend after a four year hiatus. Here are the basics: contestants build an aircraft that must weigh less than 100kg then attempt to fly it by running off a ramp into the bay. In the end, few crafts make it off the ground. But if sitting around on a Sunday and watching people wipe out in the harbour doesn’t sound fun, then, I’m afraid nothing in this world will satisfy.
