HKTB reopens ‘Winter Wonderland in Central’ with festive shows and charity support

The Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) has reopened its popular “Winter Wonderland in Central” at Statue Square on Wednesday (Dec 10), unveiling a refreshed series of festive attractions aimed at spreading warmth, hope and the blessings of peace.

The launch also includes the debut of “Starlight Boulevard” on Chater Road and the “Immersive Light Show in Central,” which together transform the district into a large-scale holiday spectacle.

The “Immersive Light Show in Central,” running from December 10 to January 4, will project winter-themed visuals, LED animations and lighting effects across the façades of eight landmark buildings, including the Bank of China Tower, the HSBC Main Building and the Court of Final Appeal Building. Holographic projections on installations and trees inside Statue Square will further enhance the experience. Shows will run every 30 minutes, with extended hours on December 24, 25 and 31.

HKTB said it hopes the program will uplift the community, while partner organizations will donate event proceeds to support those in need.
