Hong Kong is a multicultural society with Chinese and foreign cultures. Speaking of ghost-related festivals, there are Halloween in the west and Orchid Festival (also called Mid-Autumn Festival) in China. The Yulan Festival is also one of the traditional festivals for ancestor worship in China, which is commonly called "Ghost Festival" by Hong Kong people, because it is said that ghosts can come to earth in July of the lunar calendar. Some citizens will burn paper money, incense sticks, lunch boxes and other things on the roadside to commemorate their creativity, especially on the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month.
In July, Magnolia Victory Games will be held in many parks, squares or gymnasiums in various districts of Hong Kong, among which the magic performance is the highlight. Magic refers to a traditional opera staged with the intention of making meritorious service to God, to celebrate God's birthday or to cooperate with tricks and other activities, which is called magic play. Generally, magical performances will be staged in temporary bamboo sheds, which will make people enjoy themselves with God.
