Talks of expanding Marina Bay Sands (MBS), owned by Las Vegas Sands, began as far back as 2019. This week, the highly anticipated $10.3 billion expansion project has officially broken ground.
The centrepiece of the expansion is a new 55-storey hotel tower designed by Safdie Architects – the same design firm behind MBS. The upcoming tower will house 570 suites, alongside an array of new upscale retail outlets, a casino, fine-dining restaurants, wellness facilities and more.
Another part of the development includes a new 15,000-seat podium that is built to host large-scale live events.
Echoing the iconic SkyPark Observation Deck, this fourth tower will also feature Skyloop – a multi-level rooftop space with both public and private areas. Visitors can enjoy sweeping panoramic views of the city skyline at the observatory, swing by the rooftop gardens and dine at the various restaurants set to open here. Hotel guests will get exclusive access to private cabanas, infinity pools and a wellness terrace that will host curated events.
Construction is expected to be completed by June 2030, with the official opening set for January 2031.
