150000 daily visitors expected at Marina Bay Sands
Marina Bay Sands, one of the world’s largest resorts, has officially opened its gates, following a two-day grand ceremony.
Having been developed by gaming operator Las Vegas Sands, this is Singapore’s most expensive mega-complex, also billed as Singapore’s leading ‘entertainment destination’.
The £3.7bn resort include facilities such as a 2,560-room luxury hotel, casino and spa, as well as a 120,000 sqm convention centre, the largest in the region.
Still unfinished, the resort will continue to open in phases, with two theatres, a museum and outdoor event plaza due to open later this year.
“Marina Bay Sands will deliver an entertainment, leisure and business experience unlike any other in the world.” More than 18 million visitors a year are expected to visit the resort once it is fully completed” Marina Bay Sands president and chief executive officer Thomas Arasi said.
