Here's some more information about the new Sheung Wan Market.

Quote:
Experience the nights of Hong Kong's past as the new Sheung Wan Gala Point resurrects the popular Dai-tat-dei, the "poor man's nightclub" of the 1960s and 1970s. Back then, people would gather by the harbour in Sheung Wan to browse through a night market and to enjoy free local entertainment. Land redevelopment shut down the market, but with the opening of the Gala Point beside the Hong Kong - Macau Ferry Terminal in October 2002, the Dai-tat-dei has returned.
The night market features more than 200 booths selling a variety of knick-knacks and useful items, about 30 food stalls and street theatre entertainment during weekends.
Opening Hours:
6pm to 2am Monday to Friday;
11am to 2am Saturday, Sunday and public holidays
Transportation:
Sheung Wan MTR station Exit D, head right along Connaught Road West then walk behind the bus terminus.
