Lights! Action! Studio City Opens for Business
The waiting is finally over. A new era of world-class
entertainment has hit Macau. After years in the making
Asia’s Entertainment Capital has opened its doors—and
the public has responded big time.
Studio City, the US$3.2 billion cinema-themed leisure
resort located on the Cotai Strip, is Macau’s freshest and
most exciting entertainment destination. It is the magnificent
jewel in the crown of a truly imaginative concept.
The spectacular launch at the end of October was
attended by Hollywood celebrities, including A-list actors
Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio, along with Oscarwinning
director Martin Scorsese.
Studio City, part of the glamorous City of Dreams
complex offering guests non-stop fun and innovative live
entertainment, is set to turn Macau into an international
tourism destination.
Developed by Studio City International Holdings,
a company in which Melco Crown Entertainment owns
a 60 percent interest, Studio City has been designed to be
the most diversified entertainment resort offering in Macau.
It has more international brand entertainment amenities
under one roof than any integrated resort in the market.
Melco Crown Entertainment Co-Chairman and CEO
Lawrence Ho and Co-Chairman James Packer attended
the official launch of the stunning integrated gaming and
entertainment resort.
Envisaged by Ho as Asia’s entertainment capital,
Studio City’s Hollywood-inspired movie theme complex
is complemented by hotel, retail, food and beverage and
gaming offerings that have been tailored to specifically
appeal and cater to the aspirations of the vast and rapidly
growing numbers of dynamic Asian and international leisure
destination thrill-seekers.
