Hong Kong’s most exhilarating swimming event is back at the New World Harbour Race 2024! Set to take place on 10 November, swimmers get to traverse the waters of Victoria Harbour at this iconic annual event. The race kicks off from the Golden Bauhinia Square Public Pier in Wan Chai and concludes at the Avenue of Stars in Tsim Sha Tsui.
This year, the race will accommodate 4,000 participants across two categories: Racing and Leisure. A new addition, the Companion arrangement, allows swimmers to bring friends and family along for the adventure, making it a perfect opportunity to enjoy a day of fun and fitness.
Although registrations have now closed, this event is just as enjoyable from terra firma! Casual onlookers, the New World Harbour Race promises an unforgettable experience against the backdrop of Hong Kong’s skyline.
