This impressive new statue provides an iconic entrance to MGM Cotai, serving as a gateway to the extraordinary experiences that will be available to international visitors and locals alike at MGM Cotai.
A testament to MGM’s legacy in artistry and entertainment, the majestic golden lion statue, MGM’s emblem, stands at an impressive 11 meters in height and weighs 38 tons, and is the first MGM lion statue to be gilded in 24-karat gold with the use of approximately 32,000 sheets of gold foils. The lion statue sits adjacent to the new resort’s North Entrance, and will become an important landmark attraction to all visitors and a signature icon of Macau to greet visitors from around the globe.
MGM unveiled the golden lion statue at the site of MGM Cotai in a ceremony, which was officiated by Pansy Ho, Co-chairperson & Executive Director of MGM China Holdings Limited, as well as MGM’s team of senior executives.
Pansy Ho said: "This gold-gilded lion statue reveals our
