The Macao International Museum Day Carnival 2023 will take place this Sunday at the Macao Science Centre. 

The event, held to mark International Museum Day on 18 May, will feature a wide range of activities, including games and workshops, according to an official handout.

The Macao Museum and the Tung Sin Tong Historical Archive Exhibition Hall are hosting special tours, while a museum-themed online game has been created. Running from 14 May until June 4, the game offers residents a chance to win museum gifts among other prizes.

The “highlights of museums and cultural heritage of Macao will be showcased” during the course of the month, the government says, fostering a “cultural atmosphere in the community”. 

The opening ceremony of the Macao International Museum Day Carnival 2023 takes place at 2:00 pm.
