MACAO, Sept. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- With the Sept. 13 grand opening of The Parisian Macao only days away, Sands China Ltd. gave members of the media a
preview of the integrated resort's opening celebration at a press conference Thursday at The Venetian® Macao.
Dr. Wilfred Wong, president of Sands China Ltd.; Grant Chum,
chief of staff for Sands China Ltd.; Dave Horton, global chief marketing officer for Las Vegas
Sands Corp. and Sands China Ltd.; and Paulo Chan, director of the Macau Gaming Inspection and
Coordination Bureau, were in attendance at the press conference.
Speaking to the assembled press, Dr. Wong said: "Sands China is proud to introduce our newest integrated resort to
Macao on Sept. 13, as it represents the realisation of the vision
of our chairman, Mr. Sheldon G. Adelson, for the Cotai Strip. The Parisian will open its doors to
the public at 8:18 p.m. Sept. 13. And to express our commitment and
gratitude to the Macao community during this time of celebration, we are pleased to extend the
celebration to two full weeks. Under the umbrella of the Parisian Loves Locals campaign, a series of special offers across all
Sands China properties have been designed for Macao local residents to encourage them to join
the celebration."
Sands China's series of special offers across its properties gives Macao locals the opportunity to enjoy a wide range of non-gaming elements, and is a way for the company to
give back to the local community and thank them for their years of support.
During Thursday's press conference, Dr. Wong revealed some locations on the Cotai Strip to view the opening festivities,
including the Eiffel Tower pyrotechnics and lightshow. He also highlighted some of the entertainment and events for the opening,

Karen Mok. A live feed of the Sept. 13 opening festivities is being
provided on all of Sands China's large outdoor screens along the Cotai Strip, at Sands® Macao, and at other outdoor locations. In addition, the live feed will be broadcast on all in-room hotel TVs
on Sands China properties, as well as on indoor screens throughout Sands China properties.
