15 Family Medicine Clinics to Offer Services on National Day, October 1; Appointment Booking Available.

Hospital Authority Family Medicine Outpatient Services arrangements on National Day public holiday

The following is issued on behalf of the Hospital Authority:

The Hospital Authority (HA) spokesperson today (September 29) announced that 15 Family Medicine Clinics (FMCs) will provide public holiday family medicine outpatient services on the National Day public holiday (October 1) (see table below). Members of the public may book an appointment through the telephone appointment system, the eHealth mobile application or the "Book FMC"function in the "HA Go" mobile application.

The spokesperson reminded the public to stay vigilant about personal and environmental hygiene during the holiday to avoid spreading diseases. Members of the public who develop respiratory symptoms should wear masks and seek medical advice promptly. The spokesperson emphasised that non-emergency patients should avoid using Accident and Emergency (A&E) services and instead seek treatment at FMCs, private doctors or 24-hour outpatient services at private hospitals to reduce pressure on public hospital A&Es. Members of the public can visit the Health Bureau's Primary Care Directory www.pcdirectory.gov.hk to choose a family doctor and view related clinic service information.

Meanwhile, the spokesperson appealed to eligible members of the public, especially high-risk groups, to get vaccinated early for seasonal influenza to reduce the chance of infection for themselves and their family members, as well as to reduce critical cases and deaths after infection.

East Kowloon Cultural Centre to launch "Unbox EKCC 2026" programme series

The East Kowloon Cultural Centre will present three stage programmes under the "Unbox EKCC 2026" series from November to December, combining multimedia, music, dance and interactive installations to bring audiences a distinctive artistic experience.

Immersive and interactive electro live concert "IMMERSION"

———————————————————————————————

Blending electronic hedonism with modern synthwave, French music producer Verlatour is going to throw an interactive electronic music party called "IMMERSION". This multimedia music programme integrates 3D point-cloud capture technology, illuminated interactive drum pads and interactive control totems, allowing audience members to alter sound effects, lighting and visuals, take part in the creative process alongside the artist, and become one with the music.

A choreographed duet of light and shadow "Sál"

—————————————————————————

Created by Italian artistic studio fuse*, the new media dance performance "Sál" is the final chapter of its "Full Circle Trilogy" series. In boundless black holes, two dancers interact with lights and shadows in real time, alongside an exchange between acoustic and electronic music, guiding the audience to gaze at the boundary of life and cherish every moment.

Research and development project "Don't stop, catch up, walk on"

——————————————————————————————————

The artistic research experiment "Don't stop, catch up, walk on", conceived by multidisciplinary artist GayBird, brings together virtual game environments, a mediated soundwalk, immersive sounds and moving images, transforming crowd movements and ambient sounds in a public space to become part of the performance, reflecting with the audience on how technology reshapes daily life.
