Fire Dragon Dance
Originally a protective ritual by the villagers in the ancient Tai Hang area to stop bad luck and plague, it has been kept for over a century and became an annual performance event by the locals in the area. A 67-metre long fire dragon performed by 300 people, it is definitely one of the most interesting art form to experience.

Cheung Chau Bun Festival
Residents of Cheung Chau will be busy with making papier-mâché effigies of deities, preparing costumes, baking buns and building a bamboo tower – all came from a ritual over 100 years ago when the islanders fought the evil spirits with parades. The festival is a weeklong event with Taoist ceremonies and music, the Piu Sik (floating colours) parade, lion dances, drum beating and the midnight Bun Scrambling Competition.
