French GourMay Food & Wine Festival is the one and only major festival in Hong Kong and Macau dedicated to gastronomy à la française. It is organized by French Trade Commission – Business France, under the umbrella of French May Arts Festival, with Hong Kong Tourism Board as support organization. It is a highlight in the culinary calendar that all gourmands look forward to in earnest all year.

The ‘marche’ (traditional outdoor market) is deeply rooted in French ‘art de vivre’ (lifestyle), as it offers an abundant choice of local produce, friendly vendors in the neighborhood, and enjoyable grocery shopping. It provides a wonderful respite from the hustle and bustle of citylife. Besides French sparkling wines, visitors will discover a glittering array of French delicacies, such as cheese, pâtés, fruit jams, foie gras, croissants, seafood, soup, beer, tea, and much more!

There is, furthermore, a feast for the eye. Co-presented by Chinachem Group and French May Arts Festival at the two markets, the interactive installatin of ‘Waterlight Graffiti’ by French artist Antonin Fourneau is designed to create environmental-friendly art to raise awareness of sustainability issues. It will be complemented by two nature-inspired artworks created by renowned Hong Kong-based artist Bao Ho, exemplifying cross-cultural exchange through art.exchange through art.
