Ngong Ping 360 has unveiled its 20th anniversary celebratory Cable Car Night Ride

Ngong Ping 360, Hong Kong’s famous cable car ride over Lantau island, is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a series of ‘firsts’.

This summer it will be debuting Cable Car Night Ride - all 108 cable cars will transform after dark into ‘night-ride cable cars’ with luminous designs.

The Cable Car Night Ride is available on eight weekend nights during the summer holiday period including July 24 and 25 and August 1, 2. 8, 9, 15 and 16. Cable car operations will be extended until 10pm with the last boarding at 9.30pm, meaning passengers can enjoy the nighttime scenery of Lantau island, including the lights of Hong Kong airport, views of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao bridge and the illuminated Big Buddha. Guests taking the night-ride cable cars will also receive a mini UV flashlight to highlight the surprise fluorescent patterns in the cabin.

On the days of cable car night rides, Ngong Ping Village will host ‘903 Starry Breezy Live’, with a line-up of popular Hong Kong singers to entertain guests beneath the stars. The village will transform into Nostalgic Neon Light Main Street, recreating the neon street scenery of 1980s Hong Kong.

As part of the anniversary celebrations, the attraction will also be wrapping its entire fleet of cars in themed designs for the first time. Twenty-four cabins will feature collaborations with 24 local and international brands like MTR Corporation, Cathay Pacific, Commercial Radio Hong Kong, Maxim’s Group, Octopus, Star Ferry, West Kowloon Cultural District and Discovery Bay. The remaining 80+ cabins will be adorned with Ngong Ping 360-themed fluorescent patterns.

A range of limited-edition 20th anniversary-themed merchandise has also been released to celebrate the milestone.
