Hong Kong WinterFest Returns With First Harbourfront Fireworks Show This December

The winter celebrations in Hong Kong are about to get merrier with the return of the Hong Kong WinterFest! The signature giant Christmas Tree is making a spectacular comeback to the waterfront for additional festive vibes from November 24, 2023, to January 1, 2024.

Among the highlights of WinterFest this year is the new Winter Harbourfront Pyrotechnics. It will light up the Hong Kong skyline with festive icons and symbols for three consecutive weekends starting December 9.

Hong Kong WinterFest will wow visitors with a new harbourfront fireworks show

Thanks to the success of the Harbour Chill Carnival in Wan Chai, the Hong Kong Tourism Board is following up the festive ambience with a 10-minute fireworks show. It will occur at 8 pm on December 9-10, 16-17, 23-24, and 25-26. Visitors can expect the sky to illuminate with Christmas icons such as Christmas trees and gift boxes.

The “HK” monogram will also make an appearance again after being well-received by the public last time. So, come and enjoy the beautiful fireworks show right by the seaside!
