Shi Fu Miz Festival returns to Hong Kong this October for its fifth edition next month.
On Oct. 26 & 27 2019, the boutique festival will once again settle its sound system on Cheung Chau, a small island just 30 minutes from the mainland by ferry.
There, near the island’s idyllic golden sand beaches, three stages will unfold on the grasses of Sai Yuen Farm.
The musical programme once again centres around house and techno and will be sidelined by plenty of dusk till dawn activities like yoga, workshops, tattoos, street art and martial arts.
Since its inception in 2016, the festival has rapidly grown and now welcomes an intimate audience of 2,000.
After seeing first-hand the demand for intelligent electronic music, a lack of platforms to showcase these kinds of artists, and a desire to grow the regional music scene, Shi Mu Fiz has evolved into a biannual event.
It has now become synonymous with eclectic and forward-thinking artists who push the boundaries of electronic music in a mystical setting that evokes feelings of inclusivity and freedom.
Sustainability
Most importantly this year, the festival will further its commitment to sustainability by holding eco-talks and beach cleanups, as well as setting new goals towards its journey towards becoming zero-waste.
Unifying a tribe of people responsible for and sensitive to environmental issues, Shi Fu Miz looks to become a sustainable exemplary by being a low-waste event that forbids the use of plastics bottles on site.
Festival goers are instead encouraged to bring their own reusable bottles and take advantage of the free water dispensers located throughout the site.
Other initiatives will be introduced this year, including replacing plastic bags usually found in rubbish bins with biodegradable bags, while the stages and decorations will also be built out of recycled and up-cycled materials.
Finally, the festival is encouraging its guests to seek out more information surrounding sustainability by participating in eco-talks, eco-workshops, and more.
