Murphy’s Law on stage at the First Wild Boar Festival
The first Wild Boar Music Festival successfully took place in Hong Kong on 14 March, attracting more than 800 people who enjoyed a wide range of local performers in widely different afternoon and evening sessions.
Organised by independent Hong Kong music promoter The Underground, the festival was staged to showcase laid-back music including pop, jazz, reggae and Celtic folk music in the afternoon, suitable for the whole family. The evening segment ramped up the volume with rap, psychedelic funk and rock music.
