Chinese New Year 2013 - Shanghai or Hong Kong?

I am in the process of planning a trip to China for New Year 2013. Specifically, I will be arriving late Thursday, February 7 and returning Saturday, February 16. I plan to visit both cities during my stay... and my best guess is that I'll fly into one city on Thursday, February 7 where I'll stay until Tuesday, February 12 at which point I'll head to the other city until I leave on Saturday, February 16.

But I'm not sure which city to fly into first (and thus stay for Chinese New Year). I've read that many people head out of the cities during Chinese New Year, but it looks like both Shanghai and Hong Kong put on a great fireworks display.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
