Hong Kong Maritime Week (HKMW) 2025 will take place from November 16 to 22, marking the ninth edition of the annual industry event.

The event’s key activities include the Opening Ceremony; the HKMPDB Flagship Session – Hong Kong: A Global Maritime Capital; the World Maritime Merchants Forum 2025; the Asian Logistics, Maritime and Aviation Conference; the Hong Kong Global Maritime Trade
Summit; the TradeWinds Ship Recycling Forum 2025; and the International Bunker Industry Association Annual Convention, which will be held in Hong Kong for the first time. The International Maritime Organization will host sessions on energy transition and ship recycling investment.
