Chinese New Year Fireworks DisplayVictoria Harbour 20:00
Hong Kong is putting on a dazzling spectacle to illuminate the night sky over Victoria Harbour during the holidays. Spectators can expect the 2026 Chinese New Year Fireworks Display to run for approximately 23 minutes, during which a total of 31,888 firework shells will be launched into the air. Following this year’s theme, ‘Prosperity Gallops Across Hong Kong’, the visuals will be inspired by equine dynamism and energy, presenting eight scenes.
From the powerful ‘Galloping into the New Year’ to the grand ‘Celebrating the New Spring Together’, the show will highlight auspicious Lunar New Year symbols like the number eight, gold ingots, and the Chinese character for ‘good fortune’ for the Year of the Horse, in addition to high-density bursts of fireworks to wow the crowd. Lighting effects will be used to enhance the viewing experience of the fireworks show, so that’s something to look forward to. RTHK Radio 4 – on FM 97.6 to 98.9 – will be putting on music that is synchronised to the visual extravaganza for a multi-sensory experience.
