Chinese in the Sky

The Victoria Harbour fireworks show on February 19 will celebrate the Year of the Pig with a fireworks first: the display of a Chinese character.

The word to be created by explosions is gat (吉), which means auspicious, or lucky.

The pyrotechnics team hopes to pull this off in the opening moments of the 23-minute show, which will consume 23,888 fireworks in total. If it works, it will make fireworks history.

Let's wish them good luck.
