A museum dedicated to the life and career of famous football striker Cristiano Ronaldo will open its doors in Hong Kong this July, at the K11 Art & Cultural Centre (K11 MUSEA) in Tsim Sha Tsui. The opening is promised to feature several international celebrities coming together to celebrate the footballer’s impressive career.
Featuring state-of-the-art interactive exhibits, rare memorabilia and motivational storytelling, the museum (CR7 Life Museum) offers an immersive experience “designed to inspire greatness”, the organisers of the exhibition promise, adding that it is designed to be “a place where visitors not only celebrate the accomplishments of a global icon but also reflect on their own aspirations.”
This state-of-the-art museum celebrates Cristiano Ronaldo’s career and the power of ambition, passion, perseverance and hard work; a beacon of inspiration for fans and visitors.

In addition to the museum, two flagship merchandise stores will open in Tsim Sha Tsui and on Hong Kong Island between March and April 2025. Spanning over 3,000 square feet (almost 300 square metres) each, the stores will be the first of their kind in the world, offering exclusive Cristiano Ronaldo signed merchandise and memorabilia.
According to the striker’s website, besides an exhibition of his trophies, the museum will give visitors a comprehensive overview of his journey, giving insight into the “experiences that marked [his] career and life”. Some interactive experiences where “you control the experience and the information” are also promised, along with the opportunity to take a picture in Ronaldo’s UR7 YouTube studio,
“Capture my passion for football, experience the journey through my career: the places, the people, the trophies, the memories,” Ronaldo’s website reads about the museum.
This is my life, inside and outside the field, and can only be seen at the Life Museum in Hong Kong.
