About Swire Island East

Swire Island East is one of Hong Kong's best planned and established business district which comprises the retail and office centres of Cityplaza and TaiKoo Place, developed and managed by Swire Properties. Following the completion of One Island East in 2008, Island East will offer eight million square feet of commercial accommodation for local and multinational corporations. A comprehensive range of cosmopolitan business and leisure amenities are situated within the area, including the 1.1 million square-feet Cityplaza shopping centre, the Butterfield's private members club, over 60 restaurants and cafes and some 4,000 public parking spaces.

Over the years, Island East has continuously promoted art through a wide variety of year-round cultural programmes including the popular Friday Fest' live music performances, art exhibitions, a diversified range of themed visual and performing art initiatives. In addition, the complimentary exhibition venues in Island East also provide excellent opportunities for artists to display their creativity. Provision of such free venues and necessary administrative support has proved beneficial, especially to individual artists with small budgets, to reach out to the public.
