Hong Kong – LCSD urges spectators who will visit Hong Kong Stadium tomorrow not to trespass on pitch area

     ​The Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) strongly condemns the behaviour of a number of spectators who ignored the safety of the public and the players and trespassed on the pitch in violation of regulations at the Tatler XFEST Hong Kong open training session held at the Hong Kong Stadium in the afternoon today (February 3), causing chaos at the venue.

     The organiser solemnly reminds spectators entering the Stadium tomorrow not to trespass on the pitch area and cause nuisance. Anyone who violates the rules will be treated strictly, including immediately expelled from the stadium and the case will be reported to the Police. The behaviours that disregard the safety of the public and the players may also interrupt the game and deprive other fans of their right to watch the game.

     The LCSD appeals to spectators who will visit the Stadium tomorrow to stay in their designated seats to watch the game. The organiser will strengthen security and hold the persons who interfere with the progress of the game responsible.
