When Richard Breslin first stepped off the plane at the old Kai Tak Airport, he didn't just see a runway—he saw a canvas of possibilities. Today, as the design director behind Kai Tak Sports Park, he's turning that vision into reality, weaving together sport, culture and community spaces in the heart of Hong Kong.
Set to be the core venue for the 15th National Games in 2025, Kai Tak Sports Park is the largest sports infrastructure project in Hong Kong's history. But this isn't just about seats and scoreboards. With a forward-looking design and metropolitan-scale versatility, the park is redefining what a sports park can be—imagine open-air plazas for concerts, green corridors for weekend strolls and pop-up zones for local street food festivals 🏟️🌳✨
More than a single-event stadium, this living destination is designed to shape Hong Kong's urban rhythm long after the athletes leave. It's a place where residents and visitors alike can gather to cheer, chill and connect—an ideal blend of function and fun.
And there's more: the upcoming documentary Game On, Kai Tak! – Road to the National Games captures this epic transformation. Keep an eye out for its release, and join us on the journey as Hong Kong gets Game On!
As the city gears up for the 2025 National Games later this year, Kai Tak Sports Park stands tall as a symbol of innovation and community spirit. Swipe your imagination into overdrive—this park is more than a stadium, it's Hong Kong's next big stage 🚀
