2024 Food For Good Charity Gala & Hong Kong Palace Museum Open-Air Concert
Held on 18 December 2024 at the open-air plaza of the Hong Kong Palace Museum — the 13th edition and the first time the gala has been staged at the museum. The dinner was paired for the first time with an open-air concert; the "Maestros' Bright Night Hong Kong Concert" at Bamboo Scene Park (竹翠公園) on 17–18 December preceded the main dinner. Deputy Chief Secretary Warner Cheuk (Cheuk Wing-yan) officiated; Vice-Chairman of the CPPCC National Committee Leung Chun-ying, Deputy Commissioner Li Yong-sheng of the Office of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong, and FFG founder and patron Regina Leung attended. In his speech, Cheuk highlighted that smart food-waste bins had been installed in all public housing estates across Hong Kong, with subsidies extended to private estates; there are more than 200 public food-waste collection points, and daily food-waste collection averaged around 310 tonnes — up about 50% year-on-year — while domestic food waste in October 2024 was five times the level at end-2023. The co-chairs were Gu Xiao-yang (newly named this edition), Dr. Flora Cheung, Dr. Li Ai-ping and Dr. Tai Hu Mei-yung; committee members included Pansy Ho, Yang Xiao-juan (wife of Ray Lui), Bian Jiao and Xu Yi-han.
