Widely acclaimed as music lovers’ favourite venue, AsiaWorld-Arena now features enhanced transportation links that offer convenient connections to all parts of Hong Kong. Thanks to a dedicated, in-venue MTR station, the Airport Express is one of the fastest and most comfortable ways to reach the venue. Audience members can enjoy an exclusive special fare of just HK$48 for a same-day-return trip on the Airport Express, which whisks passengers direct from Hong Kong Island to AsiaWorld-Expo in just 28 minutes*.
Two dedicated express non-stop bus services – X48 from Tai Wai and X21 from Tsim Sha Tsui – also serve the needs of passengers in the New Territories and Kowloon. Together with free shuttle bus services between Tung Chung and AsiaWorld-Expo, these handy transportation links ensure that a great night out is within easy reach of people in all areas*.
