Hongkongers flocked to Shenzhen for a short getaway as the Labour Day holiday began on May 1, 2026. Some of the travellers said nearby Shenzhen was a relatively cheaper option than other mainland Chinese cities.

The number of entries and exits to and from Hong Kong during the period is expected to reach 6 million.
