Nightlife in Kowloon boasts a whole host of rooftop bars that take full advantage of breathtaking views across the bay to Hong Kong Island. In fact, even frequent visitors are unlikely to have been to all the rooftop bars in the area, but there are plenty of other ways to enjoy your nights out in Kowloon.

You can hit bustling night markets, sing your heart out to live music or even take to the water to see Hong Kong from a completely different angle. All these options, and so much more, make up the best of Kowloon’s nightlife options. To give you a helping hand, we have listed our favourite night time attractions in Kowloon below.

    The largest night market in Hong Kong and also the best place to pick up souvenirs, Temple Street is incredibly popular. The walkways are always packed with shoppers and there is a great range of items to buy. You'll find plenty of fashion and accessories, electronics, children’s toys and copied designer gear to name but a few.

    Many of the market traders at Temple Street are selling the same kitsch, mass-produced souvenirs, such as resin moulds of dragons, Chinese Qipao dresses and mobile phone paraphernalia, but they do make interesting and cheap presents to take back home. You can walk from Mongkok MTR Station to  Temple Street Night Market.

    Anybody who is planning a visit to Hong Kong will have inevitably seen an image of the iconic view across Victoria Harbor, with Hong Kong Island and its gleaming skyscrapers towering above in the background. One of the best spots to come for that picture-postcard view is Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade, located at the tip of Kowloon peninsula and directly accessible via East Tsim Sha Tsui MTR Station.

    As well as admiring the spectacular scenery, the area is also home to Hong Kong Cultural Centre, the Hong Kong Space Museum, the Hong Kong Museum of Art, Avenue of Stars and a pretty colonial-era clock tower. Entrance varies between each of these attractions, but walking up and down the promenade is completely free, making this one of the most popular things to do at night in Kowloon.

    This nightly spectacle is a riot of colourful lasers synchronised with music and takes advantage of Hong Kong’s wonderful cityscape. In total, 44 buildings are part of the 14-minute show, which takes place at 8pm every night.

    It’s shamelessly touristic and if it’s your first time in Hong Kong you will no doubt want to witness this most famous of skylines lit up with colour. You can watch the show from the boardwalk on the water’s edge, or go classy by finding a high vantage point at one of Kowloon’s rooftop bars.

    This 45-minute night time cruise on a reconstructed Chinese junk boat is an exceedingly popular way to see the bright lights of Hong Kong. The route around Victoria Harbour takes in the classic sites on both shores while guests sip on their complimentary cocktail and laze back on comfy seats.

    This tour can be booked from Kowloon or Hong Kong pier, although boarding from Kowloon will mean you get on first to get the pick of the seats and you will be the last to disembark. Be sure to book your cruise a day or 2 in advance.

    Localização: Board from Tsim Sha Tsui Pier 1 Kowloon or Pier 9 in Central.

    Ozone is the ‘highest bar in the world’ and while it’s undeniably a bit touristy, the interior design is stunning and the bragging rights of sipping a cocktail 118 floors above the earth are too tempting to miss for most visitors. The almost-cyber interior of black marble, purple furnishings and mood lighting is impressive, while out on the terrace, the attention is focused on the bird’s eye view (although there is a thick pane of glass separating guests from the stunning vista).

    Ozone is part of the Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong at the top of the ICC Tower in Kowloon, and just like the luxury hotel down below, the bar exudes an air of class and sophistication.

    Aqua is one of the most sophisticated bars in Kowloon, located on the 29th and 30th floors of the One Peking Building. While most lofty bars in Hong Kong rely on good views and drinks to win over punters, Aqua Hong Kong takes things to a whole new level, with one of the most incredible interior spaces you’ll ever see in a bar.

    The 2-story venue is comprised of 2 spaces; a fine-dining restaurant on the 29th floor and an equally lavish bar area above. There’s no outdoor terrace, but the breathtaking floor-to-ceiling windows slant at an angle across the entire length of the venue, making for an incredible frame to Hong Kong’s skyline across the water. Aqua is recommended for a chilled drink in exclusive surroundings.

    Abre: Daily from 12pm to 3pm and from 6pm to 11pm

    Although more of a restaurant than a bar, Harlan’s on the 19th floor of ‘The One’ building stays open late, and has some absolutely stunning views across the bay to Hong Kong Island, meaning it’s a great nightlife spot in our book.

    You can prop up the bar and explore their long list of classic cocktails from around HK$100 all night long. To get a table outside you’ll have to fork out for a slap-up meal. Failing that, a more economical option is to come on a weekday between 3pm and 5.30pm for their special afternoon tea set for 2 people.

    Kowloon’s most popular German bar and restaurant, Biergarten, serves an enormous range of imported beer both in the bottled and draft form, with half a litre of Bitburger for around $69 during happy hours.

    An authentic German vibe is helped along by the wooden bar and cosy booths, as well as plenty of German artwork and advertising memorabilia hanging on the walls. Soak up a hard night’s worth of drinking with one of their pork knuckles with sauerkraut – the ultimate fill.

    The sweeping views across the harbour from the 28th floor have to be seen to be believed.

    Eyebar is one of our favourite rooftop bars in Kowloon due to the amazing views of Hong Kong Island across the bay. Despite its fairly squat 30-storey view (in Hong Kong terms), this cool spot has plenty of seating with clear views of Hong Kong’s Islands greatest attribute, the cityscape as seen at night from Kowloon.

    The bar has sweeping 270-degree views of Victoria Bay and is a firm favourite as a go-to place to show visitors the neon-toned spectacle. Eyebar has a large decking area outside, and an impressive menu of tasty cocktails and modern European bistro food. Those feeling extra peckish should head indoors to the Cantonese seafood restaurant Nanhai No 1.

    Ned Kelly’s was famously the first Jazz bar in Asia and remains Hong Kong’s oldest bar. If this isn’t enough to draw your interest, it also plays some of the best live music in Hong Kong every night.

    Named after the famous Aussie outlaw, you can expect some antipodean touches throughout the dimly lit saloon, such as framed rugby jerseys and posters, but most of all, a carefree, friendly vibe. The house band plays swing jazz every night from 9pm. Find Ned Kelly’s Last Stand on Ashley Road on Ashley Road, walking distance from Tsim Sha Tsui MTR Station.
