The 2009 Hong Kong Games, officially known as The 2nd Hong Kong Games (Chinese:第二屆全港運動會), was a major multi-sport event in Hong Kong. The games were staged between 9 May and 31 May 2009, with participation from 2307 athletes. The awards included 80 gold medals, 80 silver medals and 81 bronze medals. The ultimate tournament victor was the Yuen Long District.
Expanding on the 2007 Hong Kong Games, the event aimed to popularize sports participation in the Hong Kong area. Also, with the staging of 2009 East Asian Games in December of the same year, the Hong Kong games acted as a precursor to this larger event.
The 2009 Hong Kong Games included 6 separate events: athletics, basketball, badminton, swimming, table tennis and tennis. Swimming and tennis were featured for the first time in the Games.
The Opening Ceremony was held on 9 May in Tseung Kwan O Sports Ground.
