MGM has been actively expanding foreign tourist markets. To strengthen the Company’s foothold in the Korean source market, MGM seized the prime opportunity before the summer holidays to participate in the “Experience Macao Roadshow in Korea” organized by the Macao Government Tourism Office (MGTO) and the “Macao Tourism + MICE Product Updates Seminar & Travel Mart”. Through these events, MGM showcases its diverse entertainment programs and events to Korean residents, highlighting Macau’s charm as a “City of Performing Arts”.

The roadshow takes place from today (May 30) to June 2 at the Shinsegae Department Store—Gangnam Branch in Gangnam district, a prime location in Seoul, to attract discerning Korean travelers to Macau. Korea is currently the top international source market for Macau, underlining its immense development potential for the city’s tourism industry. Therefore, MGM draws on the roadshow to showcase the Company’s fascinating array of cultural and entertainment offerings, including the unprecedented residency show MGM 2049 in collaboration with world-renowned Chinese filmmaker Zhang Yimou, the “‘Into the World of Wuxia Legends’ Jin Yong Wuxia Drama Costumes and Weapons Exhibition” presented by MGM and Hong Kong Television Broadcasts Limited at the Barra district, and more. These initiatives highlight MGM’s devotion to supporting the development of Macau as a “City of Performing Arts”. In addition, MGM introduces its Forbes and Michelin-starred dining offerings during the roadshow, showing Macau’s further appeal as a “Creative City of Gastronomy” to Korean residents.

At the center of MGM’s booth stands a capsule lucky draw machine adorned with the Company’s Golden Lion emblem, captivating the audience with its unique design. Meanwhile, MGM’s mascot, Leo, makes an eye-catching appearance at the booth and encourages the audience to take part in the lucky draw with prizes including accommodation discounts, as well as exclusive souvenirs. In addition, the accommodation offer comes with both Macau LRT passes and MGM “Macau Cruise” tickets to promote the “Barra CityWalk” route, which synergized “culture + tourism + transportation, encouraging visitors to explore the fusion of Eastern and Western influences and the blend of ancient and modern in Macau.
