The Parisian Macao, an iconic integrated resort on the Cotai Strip, is celebrating its 10th anniversary on 13 September.
Over the past decade, it has attracted more than 100 million visitors, underscoring Sands China Ltd's commitment to Macao's economic diversification and its status as a World Centre of Tourism and Leisure. The resort's development has been pivotal in expanding non-gaming offerings, including hospitality, retail, and cultural tourism.
Since its opening in 2016, The Parisian Macao has become a landmark, featuring a half-scale replica of the Eiffel Tower, crafted with over 2,800 tonnes of steel and 6,600 lights. This structure has not only defined the Cotai skyline but also provided a backdrop for numerous cultural and entertainment events.
Dr Wilfred Wong, executive vice chairman of Sands China Ltd, highlighted the resort's role in enriching Macao's tourism offerings and its contribution to the city's high-quality development.
He said "The 10th anniversary of The Parisian Macao marks a significant milestone in Sands China's longstanding commitment to supporting Macao's economic diversification, while also standing as a testament to our shared journey with the city.
Over the past decade, The Parisian Macao has continually enriched Macao's non-gaming tourism offerings through its diverse portfolio of hospitality, MICE, retail, entertainment and family-friendly experiences, while serving as an important catalyst for the high-quality development of the tourism industry. Its iconic Eiffel Tower has become a defining feature of the Cotai skyline and a landmark through which myriads of visitors have come to experience, remember and connect with Macao.
Looking ahead, Sands China remains firmly committed to advancing non-gaming development, introducing world-class events and experiences, and transforming the vitality of tourism into lasting momentum for Macao's economic diversification. We look forward to working closely with all sectors of society to help shape an even brighter future for Macao."
The anniversary celebrations include "An Interstellar Dream with Le Petit Prince," a property-wide experience inspired by the French classic. Additionally, the Celebrity Chefs Table series has been introduced, featuring world-renowned chefs over six weekends.
Sands China has also been presenting A Dazzling 10th Anniversary Celebration every Friday, Saturday and Sunday evening from Aug. 7 to Sept. 13. A fleet of 1,500 drones illuminate the night sky with impressive formations, transforming the Cotai Strip into an open-air stage of spectacular light displays. The performances have given residents and visitors a breathtaking visual experience, sharing the joy of the 10th anniversary while adding excitement and festive cheer to the celebrations.
