As we edge closer to the end of the year, there always comes a growing swell of excitement for the arrival of our large-scale music and culture festival Clockenflap. This year’s event is already shaping up to be a good one, as the organiser has just dropped the first wave of this year’s music lineup and we’re glad to see some fantastic musicians coming our way!
Alt-R&B singer-songwriter Keshi tops the bill on Friday night, while none other than Paramore’s frontwoman Hayley Williams will be headlining on Saturday, which means Hongkongers will be the first in this region to experience Williams’ solo performance live.
Clockenflap’s 2026 lineup also includes shoegaze rock band Slowdive, alt-R&B star Malcolm Todd, South Korean indie favourites Hyukoh, influential alt-rockers The Jesus and Mary Chain, and Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon. We’re also particularly excited to see rock legends Queens of the Stone Age (and Josh Homme, obviously) live on home soil – who else is manifesting that they bring on Dave Grohl as a guest drummer??
General ticket sales for Clockenflap will open at 3pm on Saturday, October 10, with single-day tickets going for $1,380 and three-day weekend passes at $2,180. Festival-goers under 18 years old can enjoy a discounted price of $980 for single-day tickets and $1,680 for three-day passes. However, eligible American Express cardholders can already access their exclusive pre-sale with 15 percent off all tickets from now until 2.59pm on October 10.
Clockenflap will take place from December 4 to 6 this year, at their usual home on the Central Harbourfront Event Space.
