The cheng chau bun festival is a traditional chinese festival held on the island on cheung chau in hong kong. the festival's highlight is the bun-snatching competition, where participants climb a giant bamboo tower covered in chinese steamed buns. the higher the bun snatched, the better the luck that will be brought to the snatcher's family.
Hong Kong designers iris luk tsz-yan and kelvin kung tin-wing recently won a coca-cola design competition with a bun-snatching influenced idea, in the distinct coca-cola bottle shape. their winning design will be built and displayed at the upcoming olympic games in beijing. a unique festival and interesting modern interpretation.
