NEW YORK, July 11 (Xinhua) -- A dragon boat awakening ceremony was held in New York's Bryant Park on Thursday as a prelude to the 29th Hong Kong Dragon Boat Festival to be held next month.

The eyes of a dragon boat figurehead were painted red to symbolize "dragons being awakened". It is a tradition celebrated each year to mark the beginning of the race season and to promote safety and good luck in the coming months of practice.

The two-day festival features martial arts performance, music of different genres including pop, rock and traditional Chinese music. Dragon dance will also be a feast.

More than 200 teams including those from New Jersey and Boston will compete in this year's races, which will take place on August 3-4 at Meadow Lake, Flushing Meadows Corona Park in the city's borough of Queens.
