On February 6th at 8pm the second biggest Chinese New Year event (behond only the Night Parade) is held—the New Year Fireworks. Large ships park in the middle of Victoria Harbour to release the fireworks, so that people on both sides of the harbour can see the show. Popular viewing spots are the waterfront of Central all the way to Wan Chai, and the waterfront of Tsim Sha Tsui. Many restaurants and bars in the skyscrapers also sell tickets to watch the fireworks. Another popular option is a harbour boat cruise to watch the show from the water.
