The Hong Kong Tourism Board chairman has confirmed that A Symphony of Lights will give its final performance on the evening of Wednesday, November 18, 2026, ending a 22-year run. Fireworks will be added to mark the occasion.
The show made its formal debut on January 17, 2004. Buildings on both sides of Victoria Harbour form its stage, with more than 40 skyscrapers lit during performances.
The Board has said that keeping some regular events going for too long can make them feel less fresh to visitors, and that the continuing cost of the show is a burden.
The chairman said other light projects are expected to roll out next year.
