The Macau Week aims to promote its culture and attract tourists.

As well as purchasing Macau's specialties including snacks and handicrafts, visitors can also collect coupons and obtain tourism information from the exhibition stands set up by Macau's major resort and entertainment groups.

Visitors can also enjoy a short lion dance and get a glimpse of a lion dance drama which will be jointly presented by MGM China and Guangzhou Song and Dance Theater in the second half of the year.

The dance drama "MGM Awakening Lion" is adapted from Guangzhou Song and Dance Theater's signature dance production "Awakening Lion," which won the 11th Lotus Award. The dance theater tailored a new version of the performance, which will become the residency show of Macau's MGM Cotai.
