New Town Plaza

Maison Margiela Fragrances is bringing a touch of romance to Sha Tin with their pop-up at New Town Plaza, running from now to April 13. Dive into a world where art meets scent, featuring acclaimed London-based Chinese artist DuoDuo Huang’s stunning rose-inspired installation, titled Memories Imprinted. Visitors can get their hands on Valentine’s exclusives like Polaroid prints, keepsake cards, as well as signature and special-edition Replica fragrances. Don't forget to share your scent story on social media for a chance to win a cosy body care set (valued at $570). 

The SPCA Dogathon will be a 3.6-km charity walk along the Shing Mun River in Sha Tin, starting from the pet park at New Town Plaza and ending at the Sha Tin Racecourse. Taking approximately an hour to finish, this walk falls on April 4, which is a Friday and the public holiday for Ching Ming Festival and Children’s Day this year – so if you have a dog, there’s no real excuse not to join! The Dogathon charity walk requires an enrolment fee and a minimum donation to the SPCA, and those interested will need to sign up by March 28. All dogs will receive an event-themed reversible bandana while walkers get an event t-shirt, and those who finish the walk will be presented with a medal of completion (yes, including the dogs).  After the walk, attendees can take part in the pet festival at the racecourse, which will be specially open to dogs just for the day. There will be agility games, a pet playground, and a Woof Run – not to mention plenty of other furry friends – to keep your pup entertained, while owners can enjoy a charity marketplace and more activities.
