A drone show, a National Day edition of the Symphony of Light and Temple Street night market discounts are some of the measures rolled out by the Tourism Board to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

In a press release published on Wednesday, the board said the "Galloping Horses" drone show will take place at the Wan Chai waterfront on September 28 to showcase Hong Kong's local elements, alongside famous works by Chinese painter Xu Beihong.

Throughout October, Victoria Harbour will be illuminated by a special edition of the Symphony of Light, featuring festive animations and celebratory messages to celebrate the country's founding.

Visitors can also enjoy discounts at Temple Street night market food stalls from October 1 to 7.

The board will also partner with mainland app Amap and hand out HK$10 million in credits to visitors using ride-hailing services.
