Dr. Lui Che Woo, GBM, MBE, JP, LLD, DSSc, DBA, Chairman of Galaxy Entertainment Group, said, ''We are honored to introduce state of the art MICE and Arena facilities to attract new visitors and complement the Macau Government's vision of diversifying the economy and developing Macau into a World Center of Tourism and Leisure."


Creatively designed for bespoke meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions, this ultimate integrated resort and MICE destination is the latest addition to Galaxy Entertainment Group's ever-expanding integrated resort precinct in Macau, which will set a new standard for Macau, while supporting the city's vision of becoming a 'World Center of Tourism and Leisure'.


Macau as An Ideal Destination

Macau is a uniquely attractive destination for domestic and international MICE organizers.


The UNESCO World Heritage Site with more than 20 historical locations has a rich cultural heritage for visitors to explore; and is also a food lovers' paradise designated as a UNESCO city of gastronomy.


Benefiting from favorable Macau SAR policies encouraging MICE events and advanced infrastructure development, Macau now has an unprecedented opportunity to develop its MICE industry.


Transportation and Advanced Infrastructure

Most notable among vastly-improved transportation links is the newly-opened Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge. The world's longest sea-crossing dramatically enhances Macau's connectivity with the region's Greater Bay Area. 'The age of the bridge' heralds a new era for placing Macau on the world's MICE industry map.


Macau is also seamlessly connected by direct flights to major cities in Greater China and over 200 cities worldwide via 3 major international airports, including Macau International Airport, Hong Kong International Airport and Zhuhai International Airport with over 94 million passengers and approximately 600,000 aircrafts movements in 2018.

Blending business and leisure, GICC also provides guests easy access to The Grand Resort Deck, a unique rooftop 'tropical beach' experience with the world's longest Skytop Aquatic Adventure Rapids and a 150-meter beach front Wave Pool with white sand beach.
