7 day forecast

Every night at 8pm, Hong Kong puts on a spectacular light show, highlighting the skyscrapers lining both sides of Victoria Harbour. The world’s largest light show, A Symphony of Lights, is free.

More than 40 skyscrapers shoot laser beams, colored lights and searchlights from their rooftops, in a choreographed sequence synchronized to music and a narration.

The best place to view the extravaganza is from a boat cruise or ferry ride on Victoria Harbour.

Practical Info

On land, head to the Avenue of Stars waterfront at Tsim Sha Tsui in Kowloon, so you can see the buildings on Hong Kong Island light up.

If you’re on Hong Kong Island and want to look at Kowloon, head to the Wan Chai waterfront.
