August is bargain season for Hong Kong's beauty lovers. From 13 to 17 August 2026, the HKTDC Beauty & Wellness Expo takes over the Convention Centre in Wan Chai, stacking cosmetics, skincare and spa buys under one roof at fair prices. Here is how to shop the Beauty & Wellness Expo Hong Kong like a pro — dates, tickets and what to expect.

What is the HKTDC Beauty & Wellness Expo?
Run by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, the Beauty & Wellness Expo is one of the city's big summer consumer fairs. It gathers cosmetics, skincare, haircare, healthcare, spa products and fitness gear into the Convention Centre, with on-the-spot shopping, flash deals, product demonstrations and expert-led sessions.
Crucially, it runs at the same time as the hugely popular HKTDC Food Expo and Home Delights Expo, so a single public ticket buys a full day of browsing across all of them. It is a chance to stock up on beauty staples and discover new brands, often at prices well below the shelf.
HKTDC Beauty & Wellness Expo 2026
One ticket, several fairs: your Beauty & Wellness Expo admission also gets you into the concurrent public expos at the same venue. Opening hours vary by day and the final day usually closes early, so check the official HKTDC event page for the daily schedule.
When is it and how much are tickets?
The expo runs Thursday 13 to Monday 17 August 2026 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. Public admission is HK$36 if you book in advance or HK$40 as a walk-in, and children under 3 and seniors aged 65 and over go free.
That one ticket is the bargain: it also admits you to the concurrent HKTDC Food Expo, so you can graze on food samples and hunt beauty deals in the same trip. Buy ahead online to skip the queue and save a few dollars.
What can you buy and do?
The show floor is organised around skincare, cosmetics, haircare, health supplements, spa treatments and home fitness. Expect exhibitor-only bundles, samples and heavily discounted sets — the kind of value that makes the entry fee pay for itself if you were going to restock anyway.
Beyond shopping, there are live demonstrations, mini-treatments and talks from brands and specialists. Come with a list and a tote bag, test before you buy, and compare across booths. For the rest of the year, our guides to the best beauty and skincare buys in Hong Kong and the best markets in Hong Kong keep the bargains coming.
Getting there and insider tips
The Convention Centre is at 1 Expo Drive, Wan Chai. The quickest route is Exhibition Centre Station (Exit A1 or C1) on the Tuen Ma line, or Wan Chai Station (Exit A5) and a walk across the footbridges. Both put you at the door in minutes.
A few tips: go on a weekday to dodge the weekend crush, bring a foldable trolley or tote for your haul, and wear comfy shoes — the halls are huge. Pace yourself with the concurrent Food Expo, and keep an eye on the last-day early close.
