Hong Kong’s Festive Winter Wonderland in December

This year’s Festive Winter Wonderland features a crystal Christmas tree presented by Swarovski, the world-renowned leader in precision-cut crystals, taking visitors into a dazzling crystal world. Standing 30 meters tall in the Central district, the tree is composed of silver and gold diamond-shaped mirrors, adorned with more than 20 million Swarovski crystals that shimmer brilliantly. Over 200 Swarovski 2010 Christmas ornaments will light up each evening at dusk along with a spectacular light show, while a six-meter-high fountain set up in front of the tree creates a breathtaking and intricate visual spectacle.

The Christmas tree lighting hours are daily from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM, and from 6:00 PM to 12:15 AM on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. The dazzling light shows take place every evening from 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM, with a show every 30 minutes.

The city’s renowned food districts, nightlife hotspots, and hotels are also rolling out festive food promotions to treat your taste buds. As the joyful New Year’s Eve arrives, the spectacular countdown event attended by thousands will take the festive atmosphere to new heights, creating a citywide celebration to remember. This winter, retail stores across the city are holding major winter sales—don’t miss the best time for some crazy shopping.
