Senado Square links the programme to Macao heritage
The square is part of the Historic Centre of Macao, a UNESCO World Heritage area that brings together monuments, streets and public piazzas from the city historical development. Its setting includes pastel-coloured neo-classical buildings and the former Senate building, which gave the square its name.
That heritage context gives the October activity a precise setting rather than a generic city venue. Visitors attending the family programme arrive at a civic space that has served as an urban centre for centuries and remains a venue for public events and celebrations. World Heritage information on the square
The open square is known for its Portuguese-style patterned pavement and surrounding historic facades. The Ritz Building places the Mak Mak displays within the square area, connecting a contemporary tourism attraction with one of the most recognisable public spaces in Macau.
What the October programme adds for visitors
The dated sessions provide a more specific reason to visit the Hub during the current programme. The meet-and-greet is scheduled for 10 October 2026 and also appears on 1-4, 11, 17-18, 24-25 and 31 October, while the reading workshop is listed for 3, 10, 17, 24 and 31 October 2026.
The Hub combines interactive displays with cultural and creative merchandise. The programme page also lists family activities on weekends and designated public holidays, including craft workshops and picture-book sessions. Activities may change, so the published programme remains the operative reference for the 10 October visit.
