A week of ATP tennis in Causeway Bay
This is ATP 250 tennis inside a city park. For one week, the Bank of China Hong Kong Tennis Open takes over Victoria Park Tennis Stadium, from January 5 to 11, 2027. Victoria Park is Hong Kong Island’s largest park. The tower blocks of Causeway Bay stand on one side and the harbourfront on the other.
The timing is no accident. The tournament falls in the first fortnight of the season, just before the Australian Open. That means players come to Hong Kong to get match play on hard courts before Melbourne. ATP 250 is the tour’s entry tier, so expect a draw that mixes established names with players chasing ranking points.
Reaching Victoria Park Tennis Stadium
The stadium is on the eastern side of the park, which is the end nearest Tin Hau.
- MTR: Tin Hau Station (Island Line), Exit A2. From there it is a short walk across Causeway Road into the park.
- Alternative: Causeway Bay Station (Island Line), Exit E. This puts you on the park’s western edge, so you have a longer walk through the grounds.
- Tram: The Hong Kong Tramways line runs along Causeway Road and King’s Road, with stops near Tin Hau.
- Octopus card: Tap it on the MTR, tram and buses. Most convenience stores around the park take it too.
Driving is rarely worth it. Causeway Bay traffic and parking are notoriously slow, and the MTR is quicker from almost anywhere on the Island or in Kowloon.
Courtside etiquette and match-day habits
Tennis has rules for the crowd as well as the players. Spectators stay in their seats during points and move only at changeovers, when the players sit down after odd-numbered games. Stewards hold people at the aisle entrance until play pauses. Phones go silent, and flash photography during rallies gets you a warning.
- Weather: January evenings in Hong Kong are cool and usually dry. Locals tend to bring a light jacket for night sessions in the open-air stadium.
- Sun: Day sessions can still be bright, so sunglasses and a cap are common.
- Practice courts: Fans usually hang around the outside courts to watch players hit up close, which costs nothing extra beyond entry.
- Food: Many attendees eat before or after in Causeway Bay or Tin Hau. Both neighbourhoods are dense with cha chaan teng, noodle shops and dai pai dong-style cooked-food stalls.
Tickets, dates and what’s nearby
The organiser publishes the schedule, session structure and ticket links on the tournament’s official website. Prices are listed there too. Early rounds usually offer several matches per session, and the final falls on Sunday, January 11.
A few spots worth fitting in around matches:
- Tin Hau Temple: A small 18th-century temple to the sea goddess, a few minutes uphill from Tin Hau Station.
- Causeway Bay shopping: Times Square, Hysan Place and the lanes of Lee Garden are all walkable from the park’s west gate.
- Noonday Gun: A historic Jardine’s signal cannon on the Causeway Bay waterfront, fired daily at noon.
- Happy Valley Racecourse: One MTR stop or a tram ride away. On race nights it makes a second sporting evening out.
Most visitors stay on Hong Kong Island, in Causeway Bay, Wan Chai or North Point. From any of them, the stadium is a short ride on the MTR or tram.
