HSBC Sevens Village
Conveniently located within stumbling distance

Kids are kept entertained with face painting and rugby themed games and thanks to the massive screen, you won’t miss any of the game!
The Rugby Club Party
The Rugby Club provides a private area within the Sevens Village a few steps from the Hong Kong Stadium. The facility will have a beer garden with picket fence and picnic tables, a tent with a main bar, big screen, seating area and a BBQ area cooking up burgers, hot dogs, ribs etc. Located next to the HSBC Kids Zone, be assured kids will be entertained while the parents watch the games. Kids entertainment includes face painting, jugglers, balloon twister, stilt walker and interactive games!
