LNY fireworks set for Jan 30
Co-ordinated by the Culture, Sports & Tourism Bureau, the 2025 Lunar New Year Fireworks Display will light up Victoria Harbour on January 30 at 8pm to welcome the Year of the Snake.
Divided into nine scenes, the extravaganza will last for 23 minutes, showcasing 23,888 pyrotechnic shells.
The lucky red number 8 will kick off the show to symbolise well wishes for prosperity, happiness and contentment for Hong Kong in the new year.
Countless red peonies, silver peonies and red hearts will bloom to epitomise how elite talent from all over the world set their sights on Hong Kong and contribute to a greater tomorrow.
The eighth scene, one of the highlights of the show, will feature six adorable panda heads against a backdrop of green lighting representing bamboo and silver illuminations, to celebrate the newborn panda twins and giant panda duo gifted to Hong Kong by the central government.
The finale showcases the electrifying Dance of the Golden Snake, with the powerful rhythmic sound of gongs and drums booming in tandem with the dance of fireworks patterns flickering above the sea.
Additionally, the façades of the HSBC main building in Central and the Convention & Exhibition Centre in Wan Chai will present a new LED light show to complement the fireworks.
The display can be viewed from numerous vantage points on both sides of Victoria Harbour, including Tsim Sha Tsui, Mid-Levels, Central, Wan Chai, Causeway Bay, East Coast Park Precinct in Fortress Hill and Hung Hom Bypass.
