The initial purchase price of the card provides for travel on Airport Express, MTR, MTR Light Rail and MTR Bus only
and not other forms of public transport such as franchised bus, tram, Peak Tram and ferry. However, at any time after
purchase the card can be topped up in the same way as the standard Octopus Card and will then function as a
"normal" Octopus Card. Once "topped -up" the card can be used on all other forms of public transport which accept
Octopus Card in addition to MTR and Airport Express. A refund of the deposit can be obtained by the same method
as for the standard On-loan Octopus Card.
A set of lanterns entitled "I Have a Date with Hong Kong", inspired by local neon light signboards and previously
displayed at the Taiwan Lantern Carnival 2015, will be re-installed at Victoria Park. The set of lanterns will contrast
with the exquisite lanterns handcrafted by Taiwan masters.
There will also be screenings of two old Hong Kong movies, namely "Save Your Water Supply" (aka "Taps Off,
Downstairs!") (1954) and "Three Love Affairs" (1963) in the evenings between 23rd and 28th September. Lanterns
are on display from 23rd to 28th September from 6-30pm to 11-30pm (extended to midnight on 27th September)
