The audience may sit on the lawn area around the stage to enjoy various performances starting from 4pm. However, eating or drinking in the audience zone is prohibited.
Attendance at the event will be capped and crowd management measures including issuing tags will be implemented if necessary. All participants are required to wear masks, take body temperature, and scan the LeaveHomeSafe QR code.
Persons aged below 12, aged 65 or above and those with disabilities who find using the app difficult will be exempted from the requirement.

Exempted persons are also required to present relevant identification documents for verification at the request of the staff during registration. The staff will also verify the contact numbers by making phone calls.
A series of other celebratory activities will also be held at the HKZBG, including guided visits, thematic talks on greening and conservation and game booths, for public participation from 2pm to 6pm on that day. Click here for more details.
