Kowloon City District, People's Republic of China
Kai Tak Hospital (Jyutping: kai2 dak1 ji1 jyun2, Cantonese Yale: Káidāk Yīyún, KTH), also known as the New Acute Hospital (Jyutping: san1 gap1 zing3 ji1 jyun2, Cantonese Yale: Sān Gāpjing Yīyún, NAH), is a hospital currently under construction in Kai Tak, Kowloon City District, Hong Kong. It is expected to open in 2 phases from October 2026, with accident and emergency services opening in 2028. When completed, it will be Hong Kong's largest public hospital, with an estimated capacity of 2,400 beds and a total gross floor area of 500,000 square metres. As with other public hospitals in Hong Kong, Kai Tak Hospital will be run under the governance of the Hospital Authority, which has designated Kai Tak Hospital to become the flagship hospital of the Kowloon Central Cluster. The hospital is opposite the Hong Kong Children's Hospital on the south apron of the former Kai Tak Airport in Kowloon Bay. The area is being redeveloped as part of the Kai Tak Development. Kai Tak Hospital is intended to take over some operations from Queen Elizabeth Hospital, located in King's Park. The transfer of services will begin with specialist outpatient and oncology wards in October 2026. It will serve residents in the Yau Tsim Mong, Kowloon City, Wong Tai Sin, and Kwun Tong districts.
