The most exhilarating weekend in Hong Kong, Clockenflap has built its reputation on the alchemy of MUSIC-ART-PEOPLE. The Clockenflap arts programme, juxtaposes some of the most exciting emerging, and established local and international artists, all within an outdoor family-friendly music festival context.
