FOLLOWING a HK$43 billion (US$5.5 billion) investment, Galaxy Entertainment Group (GEG) will launch two new developments – the expansion of its flagship property Galaxy Macau and the new Broadway at Galaxy Macau – on May 27 to grow the integrated resort’s footprint to over 1.1 million m2.
GEG chairman, Lui Che-woo, said: “Our commitment to the development and continued success of Macau remains stronger than ever, which is why today, 10 years after making our debut in Macau, we are proud to formally introduce two more groundbreaking projects to our ever-expanding portfolio to support the diversification of Macau to be developed as a ‘World Centre of Tourism and Leisure’.”
Vice-chairman of GEG, Francis Lui, commented: “We are now taking our vision even further by doubling the size of our resort and presenting unlimited experiences. Together these add a further 550,000m2 to our existing developments in Cotai, which will increase our footprint to over 1.1 million m2 of spectacular attractions.
“Just 18 months ago we completed our acquisition of the Grand Waldo Complex and today, following over HK$5 billion in investment, it is being reborn in tandem with the completion of our flagship resort of Galaxy Macau.”
Three new hotels – the 250-suite Ritz-Carlton, Macau, the 1,000-room JW Marriott Hotel Macau and the 320-room Broadway Hotel – will debut this year, adding to the resort’s existing portfolio of Banyan Tree Macau, Hotel Okura Macau and Galaxy Hotel and taking the total room count to nearly 4,000 rooms, suites and villas.
Broadway at Galaxy Macau will add a new 3,000-seat Broadway Theater, featuring live entertainment, shows and performances, as well as some 120 F&B outlets across the entire resort.
In addition, the resort will welcome the launch of several world-class restaurants, including Fook Lam Moon and Lai Heen alongside 81⁄2 Otto e Mezzo Bombana from three-Michelin-star chef Umberto Bombana.
Galaxy Macau will also see the opening The Promenade, a luxury retail hub featuring over 200 outlets spotlighting high-street and designer brands such as Alexander Wang, Bottega Veneta, Bvlgari, Lanvin and Louis Vuitton.
Expanding to over 75,000m2, the Grand Resort Deck will feature the new Skytop Adventure Rapids – the world’s longest skytop aquatic adventure river ride at 575m and largest skytop wave pool.
