HONG KONG, CHINA - Media OutReach - 22 March 2017 - On top of a wealth of MICE privileges from arrival to departure that the city has already been offering, Meetings and Exhibitions Hong Kong (MEHK), a division of the Hong Kong Tourism Board, has announced another revolutionary upgrade to its 2017/18 MICE hospitality programme 'Hong Kong Rewards!', with the aim of enriching global MICE travellers' in-town experience so that they can enjoy the city like a local in 2017. 

                                    The 2017/18 'Hong Kong Rewards!' programme will take effect for group arrivals from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2018. MICE delegates will be treated to complimentary wine, dining and party offerings at the city's world-class attractions for a taste of Hong Kong. Complimentary treats can be enjoyed by groups as small as 20 with as little as two nights' stay, so even small- and medium-sized groups who are pressed for time can take advantage of a world of offers.
