July 1, 2009 (FinancialWire) — Melco Crown Entertainment Ltd. (NASDAQ: MPEL), a developer and owner of casino gaming and entertainment resort facilities focused on the Macau market, announced that City of Dreams welcomed its one millionth guest on Saturday, June 27, 2009, just 27 days after its opening on June 1.

More than 37,000 visitors a day on average have experienced first-hand Macau’s newest leisure and entertainment destination during the first 27 days.

Au Yiu Hung and  Cheng Shuk Yin, the surprised one millionth guest couple, were greeted at the main entrance of City of Dreams by Greg Hawkins, president of City of Dreams. To mark this important milestone, Au received prizes worth HK$118,888, including a night’s complimentary stay in the Rock Star Suite at Hard Rock Hotel, and a private shopping spree at The Boulevard.

The initial opening of City of Dreams will be followed by the opening of Grand Hyatt Macau later this year, offering approximately 800 additional guest rooms. The Dragone inspired theater show will open in its own purpose-built Theater of Dreams early next year. The third and final planned phase of development at City of Dreams will feature a luxury apartment hotel consisting of approximately 800 units.
