Mega Show Part 2 takes place at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) in Wan Chai, Hong Kong, with the 2026 edition expected in October. It is a major sourcing fair for gifts, premiums, houseware, toys and general consumer goods, following Part 1 in the same season, and draws exhibitors and buyers from across Asia and worldwide. The show fills large sections of the HKCEC's halls and attracts a substantial international trade audience over its run, making it a key stop on the autumn sourcing calendar. Because the HKCEC sits in central Hong Kong and October is peak fair season with several overlapping events, hotels on Hong Kong Island and in nearby Kowloon book out early, and near-venue rates rise sharply as the opening approaches. Booking accommodation ahead keeps commuting short in a compact but busy city, protects a dense schedule of supplier meetings, and avoids paying premium walk-up rates. Event Escapes shows live, bookable hotel rates around the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, sorted by real distance from the venue so you can compare genuine proximity rather than relying on general area descriptions.
Popular areas for attendees: Wan Chai · Causeway Bay · Tsim Sha Tsui.
