Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour became a canvas of light this week as 1,500 synchronized drones painted the night sky to celebrate the Year of the Horse. The Feb. 16 show featured galloping equine formations and glowing Chinese characters spelling "Prosperity for All" – a viral moment captured by thousands of spectators 📸.
"It’s like tech met tradition in mid-air!" said local resident Emily Chan, 24, who livestreamed the show to her family in Toronto. The 15-minute display, organized by Hong Kong’s tourism board, marks the region’s push to blend cultural heritage with cutting-edge innovation 🚀.
With Lunar New Year celebrations ongoing through February 26, the drone show kicks off a series of events including augmented reality temple fairs and AI-powered fortune-telling booths. Tourism officials report hotel bookings are up 30% compared to 2025’s celebrations 💥.
