Symphony of Lights (with Music) Hong Kong Harbour Laser Show

Show Time
A Symphony of Lights is staged every night at 8:00 p.m.
Themes
The Show comprises five major themes, taking spectators on a unique journey celebrating the energy, spirit and diversity of Hong Kong:

The first scene "Awakening" begins with flashes of laser lights that give life to a nucleus of light-energy which gradually illuminates participating buildings using an array of dancing lights and rainbow colour. This scene symbolizes the genesis and powerful growth of Hong Kong.

The second scene "Energy" is represented by the display of rising colour patterns and the sweeping of the lasers and searchlights energetically across the night sky, signifying the vibrant energy of Hong Kong.

In the third scene "Heritage", traditional lucky red and gold colours are displayed across buildings on both sides of the Harbour, complemented by the introduction of music using Chinese musical instruments, symbolizing Hong Kong's colourful heritage and rich cultural traditions.

The fourth scene "Partnership" features a display of laser beams and sweeping searchlights scanning across the Harbour, representing an illuminated connection with the opposite side. Beams reach out to symbolically connect the two sides of the Harbour into one greater and unified partnership.

The finale "Celebration" brings out a powerful rhythmic display of swirling, kaleidoscopic patterns of lights and beams dancing lively across the Harbour. The exciting final scene signifies the celebration of the close partnership between the two sides of the Harbour and represents an even brighter future for Asia's world city - Hong Kong.
Vantage Points

waooo how nostalgic. I was there last month and it was way more magnificent in real life. Still, just the sound of the themes bring the night´s memories back to my head. Is something you must see if you ever go to HK.

@MyVideoHubOnDell in fact, hong kong isnt that much above the equator, so the difference in daylight hours between summer and winter isn't much. in hong kong during the beginning of july (when the latest sunset occurs) the sun sets at only 7:12pm so its pretty dark at 8:00pm (although its still dusk).

[MyVideoHubOnDell]

What if it's not dark by 8:00 in the summer months? Do they push the start time back or what?
