Beschreibung
Etablished in 1993, French May is one of the largest cultural events in Asia. With more than 120 programmes presented across two months, it has become an iconic part of Hong Kong’s cultural scene that attracts approximately 2 million visitors each year.
The objectives of French May are to touch everything, to be everywhere and for everyone.
To touch everything by showcasing the most diversified art forms: from heritage and contemporary arts, paintings and design, to classical music and hip-hop dance, cinema and new circus.
To be everywhere by bringing performances to various venues and districts, including the unusual and unexpected: from cultural centres and shopping malls, to public spaces, the racecourse and Victoria Harbour.
For everyone because the Festival aims to reach out to the entire community by developing educational programmes, talks, guided tours, workshops and masterclasses, including those that directly benefit the young and less-privileged.
For 22 years, French May has been both truly international and distinctly local and wishes to contribute to the unique appeal of Asia’s World City.
French May received the “Gold Award for Arts Promotion 2008” from the Hong Kong Arts Development Council.
1993年首辦的法國五月藝術節，是亞洲最大型的文化盛事之一。每年五至六月，法國五月均會於兩個月內舉辦超過120場文化活動，吸引逾一百萬人參與；在文化藝術發展蓬勃的香港，法國五月藝術節已是一項年度主要盛事。法國五月藝術節的目標是無所不包、無處不在、無眾不歡。
法國五月無所不包，展現最紛繁的藝術種類，從傳統到當代藝術、從繪畫到設計、從古典音樂到嘻哈街舞，從電影到馬戲，為觀眾搜羅最優秀的作品。
法國五月無處不在，將表演及展覽帶到不同地區與場所，從文化中心及大型商場、從公共空間到馬場以至維港等等，進駐最不尋常、最令人意想不到的地方。
法國五月無眾不歡，透過外展教育計劃、座談會、導賞團、工作坊及大師班，觸及不同社群，惠及年輕人及弱勢群體。
二十七年來，法國五月藝術節立足本地、放眼國際，配合香港的城市歷史及定位，為作為亞洲國際都會的香港，增添璀璨魅力。
2008年，香港藝術發展局頒發「藝術推廣獎」金獎予法國五月藝術節，表揚法國五月的藝術活動推廣成績。
