Sixteen competitors took the stage at Hong Kong Pride’s Rainbow Strength fitness showcase in Kwun Tong on 7 November, according to the organising committee.

Competitors entered one of three divisions based on what they wore: beach shorts, sportswear or a bikini. The organisers set no restrictions on gender identity or sexual orientation. Judges looked at physique and stage presence.

Hong Kong Pride’s separate Rainbow Market is scheduled for 28 November in Kwun Tong. The organisers say only HK Prider members can attend and that they need to sign up for the market in advance.
