Art Basel Hong Kong is back to full scale after a pandemic-related slowdown with 242 international galleries, a 37% increase in exhibitors compared with 2023.

The show — which focuses on the art scenes of Asia, with more than half of the exhibitors based in the region — takes place within and beyond the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.

Returning galleries include Galerie Lelong & Co. from France, Galleria d’Arte Maggiore G.A.M. from Italy, kurimanzutto from Mexico, and Experimenter from India. First-time exhibitors include galleries from Denmark, Ghana, New Zealand, Portugal and Saudi Arabia.

Art Basel Hong Kong, with UBS as its global lead partner, takes place March 28-30, with preview days March 26-27.
