The two-day 2024 Hong Kong International Dragon Boat Races, co-organized by the Hong Kong Tourism Board and the Hong Kong China Dragon Boat Association, officially kicks off on Saturday. Following last night’s drone performance, the HKTB will hold a maritime fireworks show on the Wan Chai waterfront on Saturday, pushing the festive atmosphere of the Dragon Boat Festival and dragon boat races to the max. The International Dragon Boat Races has entered the final countdown, with many teams undergoing special training in recent months and are ready for action. They have come to Hong Kong many times over the past 10 years to participate in the International Dragon Boat Races, and have become regulars in winning the top three spots. Character installations such as Brown, Cony, Sally and Choco are designed as dragon boat athletes for locals and tourists to check-in.
