Continued optimization enriches visitors’ experience 
Since its inauguration as an expansion project on 1 June 2021, the Museum keeps optimizing and introducing new elements, while enriching the diversity of its exhibits and facilities. This March, the Museum collaborates with Madame Tussauds Hong Kong to exhibit the wax figures of eight internationally-renowned racing drivers at the Museum. In celebration of the inauguration anniversary, the new Motorcycle Racing Simulator was launched today, to make residents and visitors’ museum experience more fascinating. Last year (1 June 2022 – 31 May 2023), the Museum organized 14 parent-and-child workshops, carrying on the motorsport culture through educational fun experiences. 

Nearly twofold year-on-year increase in visitor figure in the first five months of 2023
Since its inauguration in 2021, the Museum has welcomed 120,000 visitors in total by far. Between 1 June 2022 and 31 May 2023, a total of 66,244 persons visited the Museum, a rise of 32% in comparison with the first year after inauguration. A total of 9,179 persons (in 798 groups) received the guided tour services for schools, organizations and the public. With Macao’s lifting of travel restrictions, the number of museum visitors increased considerably. Between January and May 2023, the monthly average of visitors increased nearly twofold compared with the monthly average in the first five months of 2022. 

Boost “tourism +” synergy
The Macau Grand Prix is a historic legacy, prestigious event and tourism gem of the city. As a sophisticated blend of history, sports, popular science, technology, culture and creativity as well as barrier-free accessibility, the Museum is dedicated to creating a worthwhile experience of educational fun, leisure and learning for all, carrying on the Macau Grand Prix’s cultural legacy and stepping up the synergy of "tourism +".

MGTO capitalizes significantly on the Macau Grand Prix as the city’s unique calling card to promote the destination, deepen “tourism + sports” integration and raise Macao’s charm for travelers. The Office will strive to optimize and innovate on the Macao Grand Prix Museum that houses the motorsport culture on its path to become an iconic museum.
