Major Annual Events
Ocean Park hosts five major events throughout the year: a varying Animal in High Definition Month, the Ocean Park Summer Splash, the Halloween Bash and Christmas and Chinese New Year celebrations.
2009’s Halloween Bash, themed “Haunted Hong Kong”, was a spine-tingling success that featured costumed ‘ghosts’ promoting the event throughout the city. In 2008, the theme for the Halloween Bash was, “Fear Formula”.
The Animal in High Definition Months enable visitors to encounter a variety of rare animals up close, with educational experts on hand to disseminate vital information about these creatures. The Animal in High Definition Month for 2010 has a reptile theme called, “Mighty Dragons”.

Famous quotes containing the words major, annual and/or events:
“A major power can afford a military debacle only when it looks like a political victory.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
“No annual training or muster of soldiery, no celebration with its scarfs and banners, could import into the town a hundredth part of the annual splendor of our October. We have only to set the trees, or let them stand, and Nature will find the colored drapery,—flags of all her nations, some of whose private signals hardly the botanist can read,—while we walk under the triumphal arches of the elms.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A curious thing about atrocity stories is that they mirror, instead of the events they purport to describe, the extent of the hatred of the people that tell them.
Still, you can’t listen unmoved to tales of misery and murder.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
