Monthly fireworks display different to those on major festivals: sources

The proposed monthly fireworks display will be different to those on major festivals such as the Lunar New Year and National Day, according to government sources.

The administration is considering holding monthly fireworks and drone shows above Victoria Harbour, as part of the measures said to be announced in Wednesday’s budget delivery to spur local tourism.

Government sources have indicated that the proposed monthly displays are different in scale and concept from traditional ones.

It is understood the scale of the monthly displays will be similar to the Tourism Board’s 10-minute Winter Harbourfront Pyrotechnics held in December last year.
