MBS commemorates 10th anniversary with light shows and promotions

Marina Bay Sands (MBS) is commemorating its 10th year anniversary with a light show alongside year-end festivities across the integrated resort.

Using lasers and lights, the underbelly of the iconic Sands SkyPark will see a dazzling display of animation and star bursts from now till  November  25.

The exterior of the lotus-shaped ArtScience Museum will highlight milestones that have captured the public’s imagination through the past decade. The three-minute show will be staged each night from 8pm to 11.30pm at 30-minute intervals, MBS said in a press statement.

In  addition, across MBS, guests can look forward to sumptuous festive feasts at signature and celebrity chef restaurants, family staycation packages, retail specials, as well as attraction bundles. 

For the first time in Singapore, visitors to The Shoppes can enjoy an interactive Christmas experience at booths where they can have fun with animated 3D Santas via a holographic screen. Titled Looking Glass, three of these booths will be located throughout the shopping mall, to allow visitors to interact with a different themed Santa at each booth – Dapper Santa, Gourmet Santa and Joyous Santa.   

Little ones will also be able to pen their letters to Santa on a Shoppes postcard and drop them into a magical Santa’s Box located in front of Hamleys of London toy store. Available for pick-up at the Santa’s Box and retail concierge counters, these postcards contain a wish list of handpicked gifts (worth up to SGD300 each) from The Shoppes’ children’s boutiques, where little ones can check off and stand to win.
