LCSD's one-stop performing arts web portal launched today
*********************************************************
     Today (October 7), the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) launched a new one-stop web portal that allows members of the public to easily and conveniently search for performing arts programmes presented or sponsored by the LCSD and information about its venues.
 
     The portal features a user-centric design. The scrolling banner at the top clearly shows the latest programme highlights. There is also an event calendar. Users can search for programmes not only by date but also by programme type, such as stage performance, festival, family entertainment, film, exhibition, workshop, and online programme. Another search method is by art form, namely music, Chinese opera, dance, theatre, Multi-Arts, and pop concerts. Users can easily browse and select the programmes they prefer.
 
     Additionally, users can search for programmes by date, venue or other keywords according to their own preferences and needs. Hyperlinks are available on the programme information page to direct users to URBTIX or other ticketing platforms for instant purchase or more ticketing details. All of this can be done in just a few clicks.
 
     Apart from performing arts programmes, the one-stop portal also provides basic information about all 16 performance venues under the LCSD. Anyone interested in hiring venue facilities can visit the e-APS (LCSD Performance Venues e-Application and Payment Services), through which they can make bookings and pay rental fees online.
 
     The portal will introduce additional functions later, such as subscriptions for a monthly e-calendar and e-enrolment for activities like talks and workshops, to further elevate its services.
 
     The LCSD's one-stop performing arts web portal www.performing-arts.gov.hk is now available for public access.
