HONG KONG SEVENS 2019
OFFICIAL HOSPITALITY & TRAVEL PROGRAM
5-7 April 2019, Hong Kong Stadium
v2.1
Introduction
At Events Travel, we are proud to be celebrating 25 years of helping fans travel to the world’s
biggest events. In 2019, it will be our 25th Hong Kong Sevens and the 23rd as an Official Travel
Agent; having helped create the Travel Program back in 1997.
The Hong Kong Sevens is one of our favourite events and the largest Rugby Sevens event
on the planet. The rugby is fast, the fans are passionate, the setting is unbelievable and it all
culminates in one of the funnest weekends in sport. Hong Kong, Asia’s World City, is vibrant
and eclectic. It’s a city where you can be exploring nature one minute, be in the world’s finance
and commerce epicentres the next minute and shortly after that, be looking down on the
world from a rooftop bar. It’s a world apart from anywhere else and one of the many reasons
I’ve been to the Hong Kong Sevens 23 times!
We hope you will join Events Travel at the 2019 Hong Kong Sevens to celebrate our 25 year
anniversary and see what the fuss is about.
See you at the Sevens.
