Overseas fans of Hong Kong’s Cantopop star Keung To joined thousands of local counterparts to celebrate the singer’s 26th birthday, with some travelling from Canada and the United States to mark the occasion.

Three birthday-themed parade trams on Wednesday carried fans non-stop from Whitty Street in Sai Wan to Causeway Bay, which was once again filled with his supporters holding up banners and exchanging merchandise, turning one of the city’s busiest shopping districts into “Keung To Bay”.

This year also marked the fourth time that the local celebrity’s fan club sponsored free tram rides for all Hong Kong residents on his birthday.
