Hong Kong M+ Museum Tickets
A Great Hong Kong Museum for Rainy Days
The Hong Kong M+ Museum is
a recommended spot in Hong Kong for when you want to spend a day of your trip a little slower.
It's mainly an indoor exhibition,
so it's perfect for rainy or hot days without any burden,
and because the exhibition is so vast,
you'll find yourself staying longer than you expected.

In this post, we've organized:
✔️ How to book Hong Kong M+ Museum tickets
✔️ M+ Hong Kong exhibition flow and estimated time

✔️ Whether M+ is recommended during your Hong Kong trip
01. How to Book Hong Kong M+ Museum Tickets
Opened in November 2021, Hong Kong M+ is
one of the largest museums of modern and contemporary visual culture in the world,
collecting and exhibiting 21st-century visual art, design, and architecture.
We booked our M+ Museum tickets in advance.
Buying on-site meant long queues,
and booking in advance was a bit cheaper.
If you book by selecting your desired entry date,
a voucher with a QR code will be sent to your email,
and if you show it at the ticket counter on-site,
they'll exchange it for a physical ticket.

02. Hong Kong M+ Museum Exhibition Flow and Estimated Time


From the moment you step onto the stairs leading inside,
it already feels like part of the exhibition.


The building itself felt like a work of art,
so it was lovely to slowly walk around and appreciate the interior
before and after seeing the exhibits.


The interior of the M+ Museum was
very spacious and filled with captivating exhibitions.
What I personally loved was that
there wasn't a fixed viewing path,
and it felt more like taking a stroll through a vast exhibition space.


If you want to explore the entire museum slowly,
it's best to set aside at least 2 hours.
Even if you're not a huge art museum enthusiast,
the space itself is so captivating
that you can enjoy it without any pressure.
03. My Review of Memorable Exhibitions at Hong Kong M+ Museum

These thirteen lifelike sculptures resemble familiar politicians, admirals, generals, bishops, and dictators.
Depicted as frail elders, they sit in motorized wheelchairs, dozing and drooling.
They roll along a slow-motion collision course, bumping into each other like bumper cars.
The artists offer a bizarre parody of a world order determined by an increasingly irrelevant few leaders
and a perpetual cycle of conflict.
Among these, the most impressive work was
It was Sun Yuan and Peng Yu 孫原及彭禹's
< Old People’s Home > .
Life-sized figures of elderly people rode electric wheelchairs,
moving around and gently bumping into each other.
Watching them, it was a work that subtly sparked a lot of contemplation.

Next up, what left a strong impression was
Paul Chan's < Triosophia>
The installation features three waving figures that dance and sway, brought to life by industrial fans.
As air fills the nylon fabric, these figures inflate with an almost ecstatic, repetitive motion, as if pushing and pulling each other in a mesmerizing dance.
They constantly strive for coexistence, navigating between discord and harmony.
This work made me realize that sculptures don't always have to be static;
they can also be expressed through such dynamic movement.



And as I explored the other M+ collection exhibitions,
I realized how well the spaces were designed to help visitors focus solely on the exhibits.
It truly felt like the spaces were incredibly well-designed.




With plenty of media art pieces,
it was impossible to get bored during the visit.
Not only traditional paintings and sculptures,
but also many exhibitions incorporating video and sound,
meant the space never felt monotonous.




Among the M+ Museum's internal exhibitions,
the ones that showcased design and living spaces
were particularly enjoyable.


This was because there were many exhibitions that explored aesthetics in everyday life,
making for a very comfortable and relatable viewing experience.





Rather than asking you to find a single 'correct' answer within its walls,
the Hong Kong M+ Museum’s exhibitions encourage visitors to embrace their own thoughts and interpretations.
This means even if you don't have extensive art knowledge,
you can still thoroughly enjoy the experience.


The interior space itself was
so aesthetically pleasing that while exploring,
I felt incredibly happy.


There were also spots with a harbor view,
and I felt a slight regret that if the weather had been better,
the view would have been even clearer.
While I initially recommended it for a rainy day,
there are also lovely areas perfect for a picnic
and spots with amazing views,
so I also recommend visiting on a sunny day!


Those green tiles were so beautiful
that I even thought about using them if I ever remodel in the future.


Hong Kong's M+ Museum was
a comfortable indoor space to explore during a trip,
and an excellent place to visit on a rainy day in Hong Kong.
If you're looking for a great indoor spot,
I highly recommend Hong Kong's M+ Museum!
