SINGAPORE – July 2025 - Las Vegas Sands has broken ground on a new US $8 billion ultra‑luxury resort and entertainment destination at its iconic Marina Bay Sands complex in Singapore.

The 55-storey hotel tower, designed by Safdie Architects under Moshe Safdie, is rotated at a 45-degree angle to frame panoramic views of Marina Bay and the Singapore Strait. Its twin wings curve outward, creating a sculptural form that captures light and views while enhancing skyline presence.

Introducing the 76,000 ft² Skyloop

At the tower’s summit lies the innovative 360° Skyloop, a new architectural landmark composed of overlapping elliptical volumes spiraling in opposing directions. The lower Skyloop includes public amenities such as an observatory, destination restaurants, and rooftop gardens. Upper levels offer hotel-only features like private cabanas, infinity pools, and a cantilevered wellness terrace designed for yoga and events.

Entertainment Hub & Integrated Programming

Adjacent to the tower is a 15,000-seat arena, designed by Populous, which will host world-class entertainment and cultural events. Also included are approximately 200,000 ft² of premium meeting and convention space, high-end retail boutiques, spa and wellness facilities, and integrated gaming spaces, all seamlessly connected to the existing complex.

Sustainability & Biophilic Integration The development emphasizes biophilic design, with abundant greenery across terraces, gardens, and public areas. A self-shading façade system and high-performance glazing reduce solar gain, while native Southeast Asian plantings reinforce Singapore's Green Plan 2030 and sustainable building principles.

Strategic Urban Impact

This expansion further cements Marina Bay Sands’ status as a global tourism, business, and entertainment hub. With direct access to Bayfront MRT and pedestrian links to Gardens by the Bay, the project embeds smart connectivity within Singapore’s waterfront precinct. The arena and mixed-use elements reinforce the city’s ambition to offer world-class integrated resort destinations in Asia.
