HKBF 2019 featured about 150 fun-filled activities, including workshops, exhibitions, film appreciation activities and visits. These activities encouraged the public to embark on a journey of ecological exploration.

The "Savouring Nature" Exhibition was one of the highlighted activities that showcased more than 200 local wildlife specimens to give the general public unrivalled access to the wonders of Hong Kong's biodiversity through close observation.

Another highlighted activity was the @Conservation Walk programme in which experienced conservationists in the roles of Heavyweight Tour Guides guided the general public to rehabilitating remote villages, wetlands, wild animal rescue centres and more to show them the conservation work and achievements of various conservation groups.
