The male and female champions of the Bun Scrambling Final were decided in an exciting contest held early this morning (May 27) at the soccer pitch of Pak Tai Temple Playground, Cheung Chau. The event was the grand finale of the 2023 Bun Carnival. The female champion also won the "Queen of Queens" award.
The event attracted around 1 400 spectators, who experienced the thrilling atmosphere of the competition. They witnessed 12 finalists scrambling up the bun tower to gather as many buns as they could within a three-minute time limit to vie for the championships.
In addition, six local Cheung Chau organisations were invited to take part in the Bun Scrambling Invitation Relay. The three-member teams competed in the relay, which was held immediately after the individual competition.
