Celebrate the happiest Chinese New Year ever with Year of the Pig fun
It would not be a perfect Year of the Pig without an appearance from Disney’s
cute pig characters, the Three Little Pigs. Everyone loves the classic story of
the pigs who built houses out of straw, sticks and bricks to keep the Big Bad
Wolf away. To celebrate the Year of the Pig, the Three Little Pigs will be
meeting guests at Fantasy Gardens in Fantasyland. Be sure to snap photos
with them to capture these special memories with your loved ones and don’t
miss the Three Little Pigs-themed decoration in Town Square.

                                  For a fulfilling start of Chinese New Year, guests should gather their fortune
                                  at the entrance of HKDL with a newly designed Lai See. These special red
                                  packets will be distributed to guests during the first five days of Chinese New
                                  Year, from February 5 to 9, while stock lasts. Each red packet includes a
                                  delicious chocolate gold coin as well as a merchandise, food and beverage
                                  coupon, and guests can share the good fortune with holiday gifts. Guests
                                  may also immerse themselves in the spirit of Chinese New Year as seasonal
                                  décor touches of gorgeous flowers and shimmering lanterns around the park
                                  bring prosperity and good fortune for the year ahead.
