  • Sands Macao ended the casino monopoly that Stanley Ho Hung Sun had for more than 40 years in Macau. It was the first property to open after the market liberalisation in 2002
  • Sands Macao opened on May 18, 2004 and had a price tag of US$265 million. It was the first Las Vegas-style casino in Macau
  • The property was the first casino in Asia built by casino mogul Sheldon Adelson (pictured, third from the left). His Las Vegas Sands Corp has now four properties in Macau and one in Singapore
  • Nearly 30,000 gamblers and curiosity seekers showed up on the opening day, overcrowding the venue. The property was able to recoup its construction cost in less than one year
  • Sands Macao was the first property in Macau designed by world-famous casino architect Paul Steelman. He has since been involved in several other casino projects in the city
  • An additional hotel tower opened in September 2007. As of last year, Sands Macao contained 289 hotel rooms, 260 table games and 930 slot machines
