2025-05-06

MGM Tower in Dubai set to open in 2027, featuring luxury amenities and potential gaming opportunities, as part of a larger development including Bellagio and MGM Grand brands.

William Hornbuckle, CEO and President of MGM Resorts International, has confirmed that the MGM Tower in Dubai is currently under construction and is slated to open in 2027. During the company's first-quarter earnings call, Hornbuckle revealed that the building is expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2027.

"We're making significant progress, with the tower already reaching the fifth floor," Hornbuckle said. "This project is truly exciting, featuring a unique blend of amenities and potentially, gaming opportunities."

MGM Resorts International has partnered with Wasl Hospitality to bring its renowned brands, including Bellagio, Aria, and MGM Grand, to Dubai. The 26-hectare development will include the MGM Hotel, MGM Residence, and Bellagio Hotel, marking the brand's debut in the Middle East.

The UAE's gaming sector is expected to experience significant growth, with projections ranging from $3 billion to $5 billion in the coming years. This growth is further fueled by the upcoming Wynn Al Marjan integrated casino resort in Ras Al Khaimah, which is set to open in early 2027.
