West Kowloon Cultural District

The West Kowloon Cultural District (WestK) is one of the largest and most ambitious cultural projects in the world. Its vision is to create a vibrant new cultural quarter for Hong Kong on 40 hectares of reclaimed land fronting Victoria Harbour. With a varied mix of theatres, performance spaces and museums, WestK produces and hosts world-class exhibitions, performances and cultural events, providing 23 hectares of public open space, including a two-kilometre waterfront promenade. The Hong Kong Palace Museum at WestK is a gift from the Central Government. First announced to mark the 20th anniversary of the HKSAR, its construction was funded by a HK$3.5 billion donation from The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust – the Club’s largest single charity donation to date.

This year's PBC Forum is set to make history as it takes place in one of the world's largest cultural projects – WestK. We will be hosting over 2,000 delegates simultaneously across three major cultural facilities: the Hong Kong Palace Museum, M+ and Freespace.​
​
For the forum’s keynote and plenary sessions, they will be conducted in-person at one of the following venues, and simultaneously broadcasted to the remaining two.
