Ocean Park Tower stopped with 41 passengers aboard after a fault signal activated its safety system at 2:21pm on Monday, Ocean Park said. The same ride also failed on May 24, 2025, leaving 17 visitors stranded for nearly two hours.
Passengers began leaving through a safety passage in the centre of the tower at 2:45pm, guided by park staff. The first passenger reached the ground within 25 minutes; 40 had made it down by 4:13pm.
A passenger with impaired mobility was brought down separately by firefighters, who took three minutes to lower the person from outside the tower. Ocean Park said all passengers were unharmed.
The earlier failure left 17 visitors waiting for nearly two hours before they were led down through the tower’s central safety passage.
The Electrical and Mechanical Services Department will investigate the cause. Ocean Park said it would carry out a comprehensive inspection and repeated tests on the ride.
