\u201cIna Ho Cantonese Opera Research Centre\u201d of Hong Kong Metropolitan University was officially established in August 2023. On 19 August 3023 (Saturday), \u201cGlamour of Cantonese Opera Shines through the Academia<\/em>\u00a0– Opening Ceremony of Ina Ho Cantonese Opera Research Centre cum Cantonese Opera Performance\u201d was held at the Xiqu Centre , West Kowloon Cultural District. I am deeply honored to assume the position of Centre Director.<\/p>

With the generous donation from Dr Ho Chan Un-Chan, \u201cIna Ho Cantonese Opera Research Centre” upholds the mission of promoting traditional Chinese culture. Through activities such as translating Cantonese opera libretti and excerpts into English, online Cantonese opera courses and appreciation, large-scale conferences, academic seminars, refined performances and professional demonstrations, we hope to promote Cantonese opera, as a valuable traditional form of art,\u00a0\u00a0to audiences of different backgrounds and age groups locally and overseas.<\/p>

With the rapid development of multimedia platforms, we are also committed to promoting and organizing a series of cultural activities related to Cantonese opera through various multimedia channels.
