Construction is under way at Dragon-i that was part of our lives for years!
By HK Lawyer AJ Halkes Barrister-at-Law
Construction is underway at Dragon-i that was part of our lives for years. Pivotal to the city developing as a true international nightlife hub. Gilbert Yeung brought design, flair, quality, plus an incredible range of acts to Hong Kong at a time when it mattered.
I even remember working on a visa for Boy George; it was a period of entertainment growth and leadership. Many were involved in creating something genuinely world-class in our city, as places like Insomnia and Dragon-i raised the bar and shouted that Hong Kong could sit comfortably on the global cultural and nightlife map.
Now Dragon-i is being reformatted and prepared for relaunch. Undoubtedly, it will introduce a new era of what the brand is all about.
While some still seem to lament the passing of the Hong Kong of the 90s or the early 2000s, a new Hong Kong is being built and launched in front of our eyes. In many ways it will be, and already is, dynamic, different and re-positioned: it’s going large with bigger venues and making upgrades, Hong Kong is always interesting.
Scheduled for an opening soon, a new Dragon-i coming is a reminder that this city knows how to reinvent, reposition, and hopefully continue to surprise.
