/深井潮僑街坊盂蘭勝會

創立歷史: 1985年

地址: 深井新村大街十三號

戰後初期，香港生力啤酒廠有限公司在深井設廠，該區有很多潮州人士居住，當中為數不少的潮州人為生力啤酒廠員工。每逢農曆七月，各區潮州人依俗舉辦盂蘭勝會。當時擔任生力啤酒廠管工的周鎮裕先生得知工人經常疑神疑鬼，在得到廠長窩拿先生的支持下，成功發起舉辦一年一度盂蘭勝會。初時舉辦的地點是在啤酒廠的員工宿舍外，後來深井村潮州人陸續加入，遂移師至深井村路口舉行。1960年代，深井潮州人組織成立深井潮僑街坊福利會，並於1967年獲窩拿先生借地1600餘呎作會址，1985年再改以贈送形式，同時轉名為深井潮僑街坊盂蘭勝會，2009年會址重修。深井潮僑街坊盂蘭勝會至今已有60多年歷史，繼續弘揚中國傳統潮汕文化和發揮凝聚社群的作用。

/ Sham Tseng Chiu Kiu Kai Fong Yu Laan Community

Timeline: Since 1985

Address:  13 Sham Tseng Village Street, Sham Tseng

In the early postwar period, San Miguel Brewery Hong Kong Ltd set up factory in Sham Tseng. A lot of people from Chiu Chau settled in the area at that time. Many of them were workers at the Brewery factory. Every July of the lunar calendar, the Chiu Chau community in different parts of Hong Kong would follow their customs of Yu Lan Festival. Mr. Chow Chen Yu, manager of the brewery factory received support from the director of San Miguel to organize the annual event in Sham Tseng. In the beginning, they held rituals in the San Miguel staff quarter. Later, more and more Chiu Chau people from Sham Tseng village joined in, so they moved the location to the junction of the village. In 1967, the Sham Tseng Chiu Kiu Kai Fong Welfare Organization received a 1,600 square feet tenant venue from Mr. Warner (Verification needed for translation). In 1985, the site was donated to the welfare organization and it was renamed as the Sham Tseng Chiu Kiu Kai Fong Yu Laan Community. The Sham Tseng Chiu Kiu Kai Fong Yu Laan Community was rebuilt onsite in 2009. It began to revitalize traditional Chiu Chau puppet show performance and carry on to spreading the traditional culture of the Chiu Shan County.
