The Hong Kong Sevens celebrated its 40th anniversary with some entertainment between the parade of rugby matches, both expected and unexpected. The main attraction was the Village People, who performed a four-song set that, of course, included familiar tunes that have become anthems at sports events all over the world: “Can’t Stop the Music,” “Go West,” “Macho Man” and “Y.M.C.A.”

To maintain fans’ high-octane energy throughout the weekend, dancers hired by sponsor Cathay Pacific cheered up the crowd.
And finally, a wannabe streaker interrupted the Saturday matches, tumbling to the ground with a rugby ball. Security led him off the pitch to a chorus of loud cheers.
