J-pop superstar Vaundy is set to make history at this year’s Clockenflap, Hong Kong’s biggest international outdoor music and arts festival. The multi-talented hitmaker will take the stage on the opening night, marking his very first public performance outside Japan and his only show in Asia beyond his home country this year.
The festival returns to Central Harbourfront from December 5 to 7, 2025, with over 30 acts already confirmed and more still to come. Music fans can expect an epic three-day celebration featuring global icons and rising stars across multiple genres.
Joining Vaundy in the newly announced lineup are art-pop pioneers Sparks, who will play in Hong Kong for the very first time, French nu-disco favorites L’Impératrice, veteran Japanese rockers ELLEGARDEN, and acclaimed American singer-songwriter Jeremy Zucker.
Friday highlights include Japanese DJ duo Johnny Takigero and Pesky as AZABU PUNKS, as well as Hong Kong shoegaze band Chung’s Astrology, who will honor the late indie legend Kwan King Chung by performing his final works.
Saturday brings UK techno legend Dave Clarke, experimental Japanese duo RIKON, Belgian innovator Bolis Pupul, and Taiwanese funk group Robot Swing.
On Sunday, the stage will welcome Polish guitar virtuoso Marcin, Singaporean synth-pop artist Yeule, British DJ/producer Special Request, UK dubstep DJ RSD, Taiwanese singer-songwriter Andr, and Estonian nu-folk duo Puuluup.
These acts join an already stellar lineup that includes Passenger, Jacob Collier, Digitalism (DJ set), and Hong Kong vocalist Panther Chan on Friday; Indonesian rap star Rich Brian, Beth Gibbons, Soccer Mommy, Japanese indie-popsters Chilli Beans., and Thai vocalist Phum Viphurit on Saturday; and Franz Ferdinand, Mandarin pop star Yoga Lin, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, TV Girl, and UK-based Japanese DJ Riria on Sunday.
