“Galloping Horses in the Sky” was the theme of the show that started at 8pm over Victoria Harbour, drawing locals and tourists undeterred by heavy rain earlier in the day.

Thousands had already gathered in Wan Chai an hour before the start, with tourists saying they had decided to arrive early to snag a prime viewing spot.
