When it comes to art collecting, many associate it with “exorbitant prices” and being “out of reach.” However, Affordable Art Fair HK was born to bridge this gap. It aims to break traditional stereotypes by bringing art closer to daily life, allowing everyone to collect their favorite works at reasonable prices and bring art into their homes. The Hari Hong Kong has compiled the must-see highlights, ticket information, schedule, location, and transportation tips for Affordable Art Fair HK to help you plan your perfect art journey!

What is Affordable Art Fair?


Affordable Art Fair is more than just an annual highlight in Hong Kong; it is an internationally renowned art brand. Since its founding in London in 1999, it has expanded to major cities including New York, Singapore, and Amsterdam. Since arriving in Hong Kong, it has become an indispensable part of the local art scene, attracting thousands of art lovers every year.

Its core philosophy is clear: to bring art into everyday life and make everyone a collector. All artworks at the fair are priced between HK$1,000 and HK$100,000¹ making it easy for both novice collectors and seasoned enthusiasts to find pieces they love at transparent prices.

In 2026, the 13th edition of the fair returns with the theme “See Art. Love Art. Own Art.” featuring works from 106 local and international galleries. Galleries from across the Asia-Pacific and beyond will gather in Hong Kong, fostering cross-regional cultural exchange and infusing the event with a rich international atmosphere².

The Hari Hong Kong Your Best Stay for an Art Journey


A perfect art journey shouldn’t end when you leave the exhibition hall. The Hari Hong Kong serves as the ideal home base for your artistic exploration.

In collaboration with London-based art consultancy A Space For Art, we recently held the third “The Hari Art Prize.” This year’s prize saw a record 700 entries from emerging local artists. The 2024 winner, Man Mei To, won with her work Curly Breathing I, which explores themes of fragility and silence in a changing society. Selected works from the 18 shortlisted artists will be on display at The Hari until October, allowing you to seamlessly transition from the fair to a living gallery.

Located in the heart of Wan Chai, The Hari is just a 13-minute walk from the HKCEC. This proximity allows you to fully immerse yourself in the fair, return for a rest, or securely store your new art acquisitions before heading back out for more “treasure hunting.”
