The venue in numbers
Kai Tak Stadium is the main stadium of Kai Tak Sports Park in Kowloon, at 38–39 Shing Kai Road. It opened to the public on 1 March 2025, holds 50,000 people and has a retractable roof, so a show goes ahead in rain and the sound stays inside the bowl. Coldplay set the concert attendance record there with 45,995 in April 2025, across four nights that drew 183,980 people in total.
For a stadium-scale artist that means four to five sections of the market: floor standing near the stage, floor standing further back, lower-tier seats, upper-tier seats and premium packages. Prices in the resale market track those tiers, not the printed face value.
Standing zones: age and height rules
Live Nation Hong Kong applies two rules that catch buyers out at the gate. Standing zones are only for people aged 12 or above and 140 cm or taller. Seated zones are for people aged 3 or above. If you are buying for a family or a younger fan, a standing ticket is the wrong ticket regardless of price.
- Standing tickets do not have a numbered spot: entry order decides how close you get.
- Seated tickets show a section, row and seat on the ticket; check them against the venue map before you buy on resale.
What the official sale looked like (The Weeknd, October 2026)
The Weeknd plays four nights at Kai Tak Stadium on 24, 25, 30 and 31 October 2026, show time 8:15 PM. The official sale ran in June 2026: artist presale on 4 June from 12 PM to 11:59 PM HKT, a Visa and ZA Bank presale from 5 June 12 PM to 6 June 12 PM, and general sale from 5 June 12 PM HKT. General tickets started at HK$808 and VIP packages at HK$3,408.
Those are primary prices. Once the official allocation sells through, the only remaining path is resale, where the price is set by sellers per date and section. A Saturday date and the closing night usually clear at a premium over the Friday and Sunday shows.
Getting there and leaving
The stadium is served by two MTR stations on the Tuen Ma line: Kai Tak and Sung Wong Toi. Plan the return trip before the encore: with up to 50,000 people leaving at once, expect long queues at both stations, and agree a meeting point if your group splits. Arriving early also matters for standing tickets, where entry order sets your spot.
Buying on resale: how to compare
Compare the total price including fees, not the listed price. Make sure the listing states the exact date (there are four) and the section, and whether it is standing or seated. Prefer listings that transfer through the official ticketing app, so the ticket lands in your account before the show. If a listing is far below the official HK$808 floor, treat it as a red flag.
