London Macau has the name suggests has been made over to reflect the city of London. This is the second location themed casino that Sands China has opened in Macau, the first being the Parisian Macau which is based on the city of Paris.

Sands China has already started accepting room reservations for Phase 1 of London Macau from January 22. CNY starts on Feb 12 and is the biggest festival and holiday in Mainland China.

China shuts down during CNY and millions of Chinese will travel to neighbouring Macau during the two week shutdown. Most of them will end up visiting the casinos in Macau to enjoy gaming and non-gaming activities. This period is a very lucrative period for Macau casinos and is why Sands China strived hard to get the London Macau casino resort opened to capitalize on the CNY rush.
