Did you hear? The AIA Carnival is coming back to Hong Kong! The vibrant Central Harbourfront is going to be packed with entertainment for young and old starting December 12. Read on to find out why this exciting event is not be missed.
Fun event for all
The Central Harbourfront Event Space is about to be transformed into a carnival – The AIA Carnival, that is. Every day from December 12 to February 16 (except January 10) bring the whole family down for the usual excitement you expect from the Carnival, plus new attractions to explore this year.
There’ll be thrilling rides to discover, exciting games with adorable prizes, and what so many come to the Carnival for – delicious treats! With a jam-packed agenda of amusement and adventure for all ages, there’s lots of time to get a taste of everything the Carnival has to offer.
Above and beyond entertainment
This year the Carnival is going above and beyond to bring you fresh experiences along with popular favourites. Exciting new rides will be making their debut in Hong Kong, from a Ghost Train that takes riders through spooky scenes, to Inversion, an electrifying ride that spins daring participants 360 degrees in circles, backwards and forwards. Fans of the Starflyer will be happy to hear the popular ride is back after a two-year absence, giving thrillseekers an amazing bird’s eye view of the harbourfront.
Fun games with cute and cuddly toys are also returning, giving you the chance to win characters from the hottest shows including the loveable Abominable. Or maybe you’ll get lucky and take home an awesome Marvel superhero like Deadpool, Ironman, Spiderman, Thor or Captain America.
In between the entertaining atmosphere of thrill rides and amusement, there’ll be plenty of chances for sampling scrumptious carnival treats. Favourites like cotton candy and popcorn always delight, and the AIA Carnival offers local delicacies like curry fish balls for a modern twist.
Circus, culinary masters and so much more
Prepare to be amazed all over again by The Great Circus of Europe, back in Hong Kong with brand new performers this year. Get dazzled in a whole other way through the culinary sensations of local celebrity chef Christian Yang. Also known as “The Culinary Magician”, Chef Yang returns to oversee the Carnival’s food scene, creating tantalizing bites. Your mouth will water at the all-new F&B selection, with old favourites to please palates too.
Community stage programming will offer lively moments for carnival-goers, with dancing and singing performances by various groups. Popular entertainers will delight the crowd with music and tricks, and the Haribo Gold Bear will be dropping by for special meet and greet sessions – and to give away plenty of tasty Haribo candy.
Visitors can enjoy photo ops galore, including posing in the English Fairy Light Garden and the Dinosaur Park. Guests will also be happy to learn that the Carnival is a sustainable event, with several environmental initiatives implemented to reduce and recycle waste for an eco-friendly good time. There’s even more in store, promising to bring you a memorable carnival experience.
