How to get to the Canton Fair

The Canton Fair is hosted biannually at the China Import and Export Fair Complex.

For those travelling in from overseas, we operate a Direct Air+Sea connection – this allows you to combine your flight to Hong Kong with a direct ferry from Hong Kong International Airport’s SkyPier to Pazhou, where the Canton Fair is held.* Simply book your journey with us and list your final destination as “Guangzhou, Pazhou Ferry Terminal (PFT)” and we’ll take care of your baggage transfers. We've also put together a full step-by-step guide to getting to Pazhou to make your journey easier.

Once you’ve arrived at Pazhou Ferry Terminal, descend the escalators out of the terminal, turn right and walk along the main road for roughly 200m. You can’t miss the China Import and Export Center complex on the opposite side: take one of the zebra crossings and keep walking towards the building until you reach the security checkpoint. Once you’ve passed security, you’ll be able to ascend the staircase up to the complex and see everything the fair has to offer.

There are a range of commute options are available for the fair. Shuttle buses run directly from Guangzhou Baiyun Airport Terminal 1 and 2 to the fair complex every thirty minutes between 1pm and 6pm, while some hotels will provide shuttles to the fair. Alternatively, you can take the metro directly to Pazhou station on Line 8
