Marina Bay Sands breaks ground on its fourth tower
- Las Vegas Sands broke ground on 15 July 2025 on an $8 billion (S$10.27 billion) Marina Bay Sands expansion: a fourth tower plus a 15,000-seat entertainment arena, with PM Lawrence Wong officiating[2][3]
- The 55-storey tower, designed by Moshe Safdie, adds 570 suites, luxury retail and about 200,000 sq ft of meeting space, topped by a 76,000 sq ft 'Skyloop' with observatory, restaurants, gardens, cabanas and infinity pools[2][3]
- Works are expected to complete by 2030 and the development to open in early 2031 (by March 2031)[2][3]
- Safdie flipped the scheme so the arena sits between the new tower and the original three towers; the arena is led by Populous with direct access to Bayfront MRT[2][3]

The previous date of 31 January 2031 was the expected opening, not the groundbreaking the pin's title describes; the development is still due to open in early 2031.
