Here are our recommendations for this weekend.

1. Love Psychedelico – Live in Hong Kong 2024

With a huge following in Hong Kong, Japanese rock duo Love Psychedelico are returning to the city for a one-night-only concert ahead of their upcoming Japanese tour.

Kumi and Naoki met at university and founded the band in 1997, and now have eight albums under their belts.

 

Fans can look forward to a live performance of their terrific new single, “Forgive Me Not”, which was released in May.
