In a spectacular celebration of the Mid-Autumn Festival, 1,000 drones will take off from the Wan Chai harbourfront to illuminate the night sky over Victoria Harbour. These drones gracefully weave intricate and dynamic patterns, resembling adorable rabbits, traditional lanterns and transforming into fire dragons soaring across the sky. The stunning show beautifully complements the bright moon shining above, enhancing the festive atmosphere for a night of celebratory wonder in Hong Kong.

Additionally, to mark the 75th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China, a drone show will feature various scenes that highlight local Hong Kong characteristics and commemorate this significant milestone.
