Aberdeen and Pok Fu Lam

On 24, 25, 31 Oct and 1 Nov only special departures run: Admiralty → Chinese Christian Cemetery 9am–12 noon, and back 9:45am–3:15pm. Cross-harbour 971R (Mong Kok ↔ Cyberport) runs 9:40am–4:30pm on 17–19 Oct, with special departures from Shanghai St near Bute St, Mong Kok, 9:00–10:15am. Citybus 33X gets extra stops outside the HKCCCU Pok Fu Lam Road Cemetery on festival days. Police may close Peel Rise to all vehicles (7:30am–6:30pm on 18 Oct), so don't plan on a taxi to the gate.

Plan your trip to Aberdeen Chinese Permanent Cemetery from where you are. Our planner doesn't show the festival-only 347 yet, so it suggests MTR to Wong Chuk Hang plus minibus.

On the other closure days (17, 19, 24, 25, 31 Oct, 1 Nov) taxis and 18M can get through too.

Tseung Kwan O Chinese Permanent Cemetery

Sun 18 Oct: the access road from Ko Chiu Rd is fully closed (5:30am–8pm), and there's no 14S. Take the MTR to Tiu Keng Leng and use the BMCPC Footpath opposite the station. It has stairs, so wheelchair users should use the access road on Ko Chiu Rd. Other days (17, 19, 24, 25 Oct, 1 Nov; also 8 Nov): KMB special 14S runs 7:30am–5:25pm from Yau Tong. Board on Lei Yue Mun Rd eastbound, opposite Evangelize China Fellowship Holy Word School. Taxis and minibuses drop off at temporary points such as Ko Chiu Rd eastbound near Ko Yee Estate.

Other cemeteries with road changes

• Po Fook Memorial Hall / Fu Shan (Tai Wai): Lower Shing Mun Rd is closed 7am–6pm on festival days, except to minibus 64K.
• St Raphael's Catholic Cemetery (Cheung Sha Wan): no parking. The minibus 42 terminus moves to outside 550 Castle Peak Rd, and 45M is diverted.

Tips

• Go early. TD asks grave sweepers to avoid 12 noon–2pm. Special buses mostly finish by 4pm (6pm for 388/389 on the 18th), so plan your return before then.
• Mon 19 Oct and the next two weekends are quieter than Sunday, and the same special buses run on most of those days.
• Use Octopus and expect queues at Admiralty (West), Chai Wan and Shau Kei Wan.
• Don't drive. Parking is suspended near most cemeteries, and illegally parked cars may be towed.
• Check cemetery opening hours with the Chinese Permanent Cemeteries board (bmcpc.org.hk) or FEHD. For live updates use HKeMobility or call 1823.
• Ching Ming: similar cemetery arrangements return each spring, and we update this page then.
