This page answers one question: is today a public holiday in Hong Kong? It takes today's date in the Hong Kong timezone (Asia/Hong_Kong) and checks it against the official holiday calendars we publish for Hong Kong (2025–2028), every one sourced from government announcements. The status is computed live when the page loads, so the answer is correct whenever you open it — and the date rolls over at local midnight, not ours.
