Hong Kong marks the 28th anniversary of its return to Chinese sovereignty on Tuesday.

The day’s events start with a flag-raising ceremony at Golden Bauhinia Square in Wan Chai and a reception at the nearby Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, where Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu will give a speech to mark the anniversary.

Residents, meanwhile, will be able to enjoy discounts at more than 3,800 restaurants as part of the July 1 celebrations, as well as free museum visits and tram rides, and cheap tickets for some of the city’s major attractions.

On Monday, the city marked the fifth anniversary of the Beijing-imposed national security law. The legislation changed the city’s political landscape, with the annual July 1 march organised by the opposition bloc last held in 2019.
