Happy Dragon Boat Festival! A spectacular festive drone show organised by the Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) lit up the night sky above Victoria Harbour this evening (10 June). A fleet of 1,000 illuminated drones used the sky as their canvas and painted drums, dragon boat races, and other topical images, showcasing Hong Kong’s traditions to crowds of residents and visitors along the harbourfront.
The drone show began with an aerial display of glittering rice dumplings(zongzi) filling the sky, which then quickly transformed into a dragon boat drummer cheering competitors in the upcoming dragon boat races. The highlight of the show was a thrilling dragon boat race across the skyline which drew gasps of wonder from the crowd below. A rousing climax to the show saw a giant dragon flying on the oar of a dragon boat to send its blessings to the audience and remind them about the Hong Kong International Dragon Baot Races this weekend (15 and 16 June) on the Tsim Sha Tsui East promenade.
