The “Experience Macao” initiatives were designed to showcase Macau’s robust “Tourism+” offerings to industry professionals, local residents, and visitors and enhance its appeal as the preferred destination for family tourism.
During the promotional event, SJM showcased an array of exclusive accommodations and gourmet dining options alongside a host of compelling activities. Highlights included the “SJM Five-a-side Football Friendly: Portuguese Icons vs. Greater Bay Area Dragons” slated for 19 May, immersive experiences at “Martial Arts Arena” and “AI Wonderland” (shown above), the two major thematic game zones within the Grand Lisboa Palace Resort Macau, and “SJM x Macau Cruise” featuring “Sea + Land” sightseeing tours, all designed to captivate visitors of varied ages.
