HONG KONG, Feb 2 (Reuters Life!) – They’ll huff, they’ll puff -- and Hong Kong Disney hopes The Three Little Pigs will bring the house down this Chinese New Year.

The pigs, who beat the Big Bad Wolf in Disney’s 1933 hit cartoon, will parade around the park in a bid to attract visitors during the lunar new year holiday, which this year falls on Feb 18. This year has been dubbed the “Year of the Pig”.

With funny caps and oversized bow ties, the porky trio will make their first appearance before Sleeping Beauty’s castle. Millions of mainland Chinese visitors are expected to visit Hong Kong during the extended break.

Hong Kong Disney will be decked out in splendid golds and reds in the run up to this important holiday. The park will also have firecrackers and peach blossoms to ward off bad luck.

Mickey, Goofy, Donald and the gang will wear traditional Chinese clothing during the festivities which run from February 2 to March 4th.

The pigs are part of a marketing campaign aimed at restoring the park’s reputation which was ruined last Chinese New Year when overcrowding made officials lock the doors, barring scores of mainland tourists with valid tickets from entering.
