The new crown pneumonia epidemic has slowed down, and the government has relaxed epidemic prevention measures before Halloween, and bars can be open until 2 am.
On the eve of Halloween on October 31, Lan Kwai Fong and Tsim Sha Tsui were crowded with people. By the early morning of November 1, the carnival citizens became more enthusiastic, but about 10 minutes before 2 in the morning, the bars began to close.
At 2 o'clock, the police officers walked in and chased people away. The crowds in Lan Kwai Fong and Tsim Sha Tsui also dispersed in 20 minutes.
Sources at the scene indicated that the police mainly used persuasion and did not issue a ticket a few minutes after 2 am on the 31st.
The bars in Lan Kwai Fong were closed one after another at 1:55 in the morning, and FEHD officers began patrols at 2 o'clock. Police officers even entered the bar to rush people.
However, on-site information stated that the police mainly used persuasion and had not yet issued a ticket.
At 2:30 in the morning, 90% of the crowd in Lan Kwai Fong had dispersed, leaving only some drunk people hanging around.
On the other side of Tsim Sha Tsui, bars and restaurants started at 1:45 in the morning, paying for customers to clear the venue, and most of them had already closed before 2:00.
The police checked cards at Bowler Lane all night, while Knutsford Terrace was patrolled by FEHD staff.
The crowds in Tsim Sha Tsui also dispersed at 2:30. As there were not enough taxis, many people waited for overnight buses by the side of the road.
