It is a little out of the way, but a new concert venue in the New Territories may be just what the Hong Kong music scene needs now that Kitec (the Kowloon Bay International Trade & Exhibition Centre) is no more.

Located inside Go Park Sai Sha in Ma On Shan, AXA Dreamland is a 24,000-square-foot (2,230-square-metre) entertainment arena that can accommodate up to 1,500 people and has 850 fixed seats. The closest MTR station is Wu Kai Sha.
Developed by Sun Hung Kai Properties (SHKP), the new space is designed to meet the market need for small- to medium-sized indoor performance venues.

For over a decade, Kitec’s 600-seat “Music Zone” was the launch pad for many local independent musicians and rising stars, from My Little Airport to boyband Mirror.
