Hong Kong’s National Day is 1 October. Due to the holidays, the first week of October receives a heavy influx of local tourists.

Best time to visit Hong Kong, weather wise. October to early December has pleasant temperatures and minimal rain.
Cheapest time to visit Hong Kong. Look for flight and hotel deals in May and June as there are no major festivals and the humidity is high during these months. If you want to enjoy both good weather and affordable prices, November and December are the most favourable months to visit Hong Kong.
