Celebrations for the 50th edition of the UBS Hong Kong Open began in style with a glamorous launch party at one of Hong Kong’s top nightspots . 

More than 350 guests – including China’s top golfer, Liang Wenchong – attended the cocktail gathering at Watermark Restaurant and Bar in Central. 

The UBS Hong Kong Open is the oldest professional sports event in Hong Kong and is considered the “jewel in the crown” of Asian golf with a history and heritage that no other tournament in the region can match. 

It is one of only two tournaments of significance – the other being the Masters at Augusta National in the USA – to have been held at the same venue for 50 years or more.

樂園今年首次與海港城合作，將「迪士尼黑色世界」的驚嚇體驗帶到尖沙咀，由即日起至10月26日在海港城海運大廈露天廣場設立一個以「森魔詭域」主題的互動拍照景點。「迪士尼黑色世界」內其中一個「黑色守衛」更伺機出動，在拍照景點的揭幕儀式上神秘現身。

在海港城逛街購物的市民和遊客可到這個互動景點拍照，免費感受「迪士尼黑色世界」的恐怖驚嚇體驗。拍照景點內的攝影機利用先進的動態感應技術，能夠捕捉人們每一個肢體動作，在他們身上加上如籐蔓纏身的特別效果。要拍出一張精彩絕倫的照片，動作形態並不足夠，別忘記還要做出最驚慌最詭異最毛骨悚然的表情！
