Ocean Park Christmas Sensation will begin on 13 December, highlighted by Ocean of Light, Hong Kong’s largest indoor Christmas lighting spectacle. The attraction features millions of eco-friendly LEDs arrayed in designs themed on the Park’s iconic attractions and over half a hundred colourfully rendered animal ambassadors, including giant pandas, penguins, dolphins and toucan, bringing guests a most brilliant Christmas experience. This spectacular lighted miniature of Ocean Park boasts a galore of photo opportunities, with 360-degree panoramas of lights and mini-attractions for group photos with friends and family. The Waterfront Plaza will also present the Park’s tallest ever Christmas tree, decorated in a theme of colourful candies and measuring 70 feet tall, making it one of the tallest in Hong Kong this holiday season. The ever-popular Doraemon and friends will help elevate the joyous festive atmosphere to new heights with Doraemon Christmas Party House at Whiskers Harbour. The Park is also offering for the first time different Christmas gift vouchers, all perfect for seasonal gifting.
Ms. Vivian Lee, Executive Director, Sales & Marketing, said, “Results from our guest surveys have revealed that most of our guests, from families, to lovebirds and even the younger generation, are particularly fond of taking photos of fun times with extravagant scenes. Therefore, in addition to staging fantastic performances, we have specially created Hong Kong’s largest indoor lighting spectacle, filled with memorable highlights of Ocean Park to present our guests an unforgettable Christmas season.”
Ocean Park’s first-ever Ocean of Light themed area will be staged inside the 13,000 square-foot “Applause Pavilion”, with millions of LEDs glowing against the dark setting to present a creative miniature of Hong Kong People’s Park. The journey of light begins with a rainbow-coloured tunnel, welcoming guests to a feast for the eyes and other senses. The various areas in the attraction are complemented by different background music to augment the experience. With so many scintillating scenes, guests can be sure of taking home wonderful memories that last a lifetime.
During Christmas Sensation, there will be joyous Christmas decorations and activities throughout Ocean Park. The Waterfront Plaza will be transformed into Christmas Candyland filled with giant candy canes, gingerbread man and cupcakes, as well as a 70-foot tall Christmas tree themed on colourful candies. Beautiful Christmas carols will add to the sweet seasonal experience. Dancers in sugar candy dresses will put on Christmas Street Shows at the Summit to help spread holiday cheers. Santa will also appearing throughout the Park, including feeding the fish inside the Grand Aquarium and taking photos with guests at the Waterfront.
