Hong Kong kicked off 2026 with a bang as its iconic Central district transformed into a neon wonderland for the New Year countdown! 🎆 Tens of thousands gathered at Chater Road Pedestrian Precinct for a mashup of live music, high-tech projections, and community spirit.
Local favorites Jay Fung and Cloud Wan shared the stage with legendary Aussie band Air Supply, who rocked classic hits like 'All Out of Love'. 👏 A kids' choir and the Hong Kong Police Band added heartwarming vibes before the big moment.
The real showstopper? Eight skyscrapers became giant canvases for an immersive light show! 🌃 Seasonal patterns morphed into a countdown clock, exploding into a 3-minute 'New Hope, New Beginnings' spectacle at midnight. Talk about #ViewGoals!
As fireworks painted the harbor, residents and travelers alike cheered—proving once again that Hong Kong knows how to party across generations and borders. 🥳
