|May 31, 2024
Las Vegas Sands' (LVS) plans for Singapore may include expansion of its current casino space at Marina Bay Sands (MBS).
-
Bloomberg reported on May 30 that LVS plans another development in Singapore to complement its casino resort here, including more space for live entertainment.
It will have fewer rooms than the existing MBS resort, but will have a casino, restaurants and an arena, the report said.
It quoted LVS chief executive Rob Goldstein as saying at a May 29 investor conference that the company will give more details of its Singapore plans later in 2024.
LVS had said in April that construction on a $4.5 billion expansion could begin in July 2025, and be completed by 2029.
