Hubert Wang, President & Chief Operating Officer of MGM, said, “This summer, MGM invites the legendary music band Mayday to perform a one-night exclusive concert at MGM COTAI. This collaborative program with Macau Pass innovatively combines a popular entertainment experience with boosting community consumption, which is made possible with the utilization of the Company’s own resources to gift out concert tickets and discounts. We will continue to strengthen the integrated development of ‘Tourism+’ to facilitate the growth of tourism industry as well as its surrounding industries, and more essentially to activate the community economy and pragmatically support local SMEs.”
MGM will join hands with Asia’s legendary music band Mayday to present the tailored-for-MGM performance “Mayday FLY TO MGM Concert” on August 27 at the 1/F Roof Terrace of MGM COTAI. Being Mayday’s first-ever outdoor concert in Macau, it is undoubtedly a major highlight of the city’s entertainment offerings this summer. Rocking Asia’s music scene for 20 years and beyond, Mayday is best known for their passionate pop-rock live performance that enthralls millions of fans. Audience of this one-night exclusive music show will enjoy the captivating performance of Mayday’s classics up close and immerse into the beautiful memories of the lineup under the dazzling summer skyline, making it truly a joyous night to remember.
