Interested members of the public who are at least one metre in height can participate in the bun tower climbing activity by making an on-site application. They can then climb the 14m-tall bun tower set up for the Bun Scrambling Competition to experience the fun of climbing.
Bun tower climbing relays involving 12 teams from local tertiary institutions, government departments, public utilities and commercial and industrial organizations will also be staged, during which the fastest teams to finish the races will be the winners.
Members of the China Hong Kong Mountaineering and Climbing Union will be invited to brief visitors on climbing skills and safety aspects of bun tower climbing to let them learn more about the technical and safety aspects concerned.
Moreover, the public can make wishes at the Wishing Bun Tower at the venue. Other activities will include an exhibition of winning works from students' coloring and drawing competitions as well as variety shows, game stalls and handicrafts to enhance the fun of the carnival for families and friends.
The Climbing Carnival is one of the highlights of the 2023 Bun Carnival which is jointly organized by the Hong Kong Cheung Chau Bun Festival Committee and the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), with the support of the Cheung Chau Wai Chiu County Association Limited, the Cheung Chau Rural Committee, the Islands District Office and the China Hong Kong Mountaineering and Climbing Union.
