The
first Hong Kong Pulse Light Festival turns the city into a
playground of luminous artworks

 

HONG KONG, CHINA – Media OutReach – November 28, 2018 – There is no better
time to visit Hong Kong than this winter, as its skies and shores will become
even more radiant than ever during this festive season, thanks to a sparkling
lineup of light-filled festivities organised by the Hong Kong Tourism Board
(HKTB) between 29 November 2018 and 24 February 2019.

 

Visitors will be
treated to an eye-opening visual feast during the inaugural edition of Hong Kong Pulse Light Festival 2018,
which is the largest open-air light festival in Hong Kong. From the enhancement
of “A Symphony of Lights” light-and-music show to brilliantly lit installations
by artists from across the globe, the dazzling artistic light displays ensure
that there will be no dark corners this winter.

 

Winter Wonderland

 

Artists from around the world will be displaying their light-inspired
installations along Victoria Harbour, brightening up this winter with a
magically incandescent experience for all. The International Light Art Display will turn the city into an
interactive light art playground by featuring 14 of the best artworks that have
toured other world-famous light festivals, alongside 4 symbolic Hong Kong
installations by local artists.

Bright Skies Ahead

 

Dubbed as the one of the world’s most spectacular light shows, the marvelous
“A Symphony of Lights” nightly light
show along Victoria Harbour will be further enhanced this Christmas and New
Year. The additional skyscrapers participating in the coordinated production
and pyrotechnics from building rooftops adding highlights to the show on
selected evenings will usher in the holiday season.

A Tale of Two Trees

 

An artistic reinterpretation of the traditional Christmas tree will be
installed adjacent to the Observation Wheel. The “XTree” by France’s 1024 Architecture is made with lit-up metallic
scaffoldings that represent branches, and augmented by strategically placed
light decorations that dance to a matching soundtrack.  Hong
Kong’s Christmas atmosphere is further enhanced by the iconic Christmas Tree at Statue Square, enticing visitors with its
sparkling festive display.

 

Along with a range of
winter celebration activities taking place at key attractions, festive seasonal
events and night tours, these festivities promise to spice up visitors’ holiday
season with an unforgettable visual voyage in Hong Kong.
