Wednesday night horse races in Happy Valley. Casual. Pitchers of beer, pub food, etc. Worth seeing if you're in HK on a Wednesday and haven't been before.
Horse racing became a fixture in Hong Kong in 1841 but enjoyment of this sport was originally confined to the city’s elite. Today, a trip to one of the city’s world-class tracks – Happy Valley on Hong Kong Island or Sha Tin in the New Territories – will confirm that it has very much gone mainstream since. The racing season starts in September and runs to July of the following year. Any meeting will provide a taste of the local passion for racing, with hundreds of fans armed with racing guides intently listening to radio commentary, gripping their betting sheets and cheering on their favourites. To experience all the real glamour and spectacle of the sport, try to see the Hong Kong Derby, the Queen Elizabeth II Cup or the ‘turf world championship’ Hong Kong International Races, when some of the richest racing purses in the sport attract horses and jockeys from all over the world and the competition is intense. Usually on every Wednesday night.

Every wednesday evening HK has its horse races in the middle of the city. It's a great place to meet people and enjoy a good beer surrounded by Happy Valley amazing views.
On every Wednesday evening, there is racing activity. Close distance to the running track. Good place to try the luck and enjoy the drinks and food with group of friends.
