14TH ASIAN GAMING POWER 50 TO BE HELD AT WYNN PALACE GRAND THEATER BALLROOM ON FRIDAY 5 NOVEMBER 2021

Leading B2B Asian gaming industry publication Inside Asian Gaming (IAG) is pleased to announce that Wynn Palace will be the Venue Sponsor for the 14th Asian Gaming Power 50 Black Tie Gala Dinner on Friday 5 November 2021, which will be held at the Grand Theater Ballroom at Wynn Palace.

Details of the Asian Gaming Power 50, including the Black Tie Gala Dinner, can be found at the dedicated Power 50 website at www.iagpower50.com.

Opened in 2016, Wynn Palace features an array of entertainment experiences including the dazzling performance lake spanning eight acres and mesmerising guests with a choreographed display of water, music and light, the unique SkyCab, large-scale floral displays and an extensive collection of artworks by the world’s leading artists.

The Grand Theater Ballroom is one of Macau’s leading event spaces – a spectacular room featuring soaring, seven-meter-high ceilings where a delicious dinner befitting of such a gala event will be expertly served in an elegant and refined style.

Celebrating its 14th anniversary this year, the Asian Gaming Power 50 has established a reputation not only as the definitive guide to the most influential people in Asian gaming but a lasting record of achievement.

Likewise, the annual Asian Gaming Power 50 Black Tie Gala Dinner is renowned as one of the most prestigious events of the year, bringing together those at the pinnacle of the industry to celebrate the significant role Asia’s integrated resort and gaming leaders have played over the preceding 12 months.

Guests arriving to the Grand Theater Ballroom at Wynn Palace this year will walk the famous Wynn Palace red carpet on their way to enjoying the traditional live-streamed Welcome Cocktails, followed by an exquisite Gala Dinner during which IAG will count down the 2021 Asian Gaming Power 50 over a sumptuous four course meal.

An Official After Party will allow guests to let their hair down until late in a relaxed and fun environment.

Inside Asian Gaming Vice Chairman and CEO Andrew W Scott said, “It is with great pleasure that we announce Wynn Palace as the venue for this year’s Asian Gaming Power 50 Gala Dinner.

“While the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic continue, 2021 has been a year of hope as we emerge stronger and as ready as ever to push towards a brighter and more prosperous future.

“Given all that we have been through together, there has never been a more important time to recognize those who have provided leadership when we have needed it most. Anxiously awaited each November, the Asian Gaming Power 50 plays an important role in defining our industry every year.

“We thank our friends at Wynn Palace for their wonderful support and look forward to the biggest and best Asian Gaming Power 50 Black Tie Gala Dinner yet.”

First published by IAG in 2008, the Asian Gaming Power 50 has become renowned as the definitive guide to the most influential people in the Asian gaming industry over the preceding 12 months.

The Asian Gaming Power 50 Black Tie Gala Dinner will see IAG count down this year’s “Big 50” while guests enjoy a fine dining meal, lively entertainment and the company of many industry peers and influencers. The list will be announced in a variety of interesting ways by renowned VIPs and government officials.
