Standard Chartered Arts in the Park returns next month for its biggest edition yet
The giant puppet parade is back
Standard Chartered’s annual Night Parade returned to the city after an unfortunate postponement due to the Tai Po fire tragedy in 2025. The event, held on November 29, is a dazzling display of illuminated colors, light, and rhythm, showcasing the creative prowess of local artists. The parade, inspired by the beloved tale of Pinocchio, features a procession of five towering puppets, eight unique carnival costumes, and four dance troupes.
Almost 100 performers will converge in Causeway Bay, starting their journey from Lee Garden One, meandering through Yun Ping Road, Pak Sha Road, Lee Garden Road, Kai Chiu Road, Hysan Place, and returning to the starting point. As the parade begins, attendees can expect to witness the larger-than-life puppets, including the iconic figures of Pinocchio and Geppetto. To mark the occasion, early arrivals can have their faces painted and be gifted a Pinocchio hat.
