5 reasons why Aaron Kwok wants you to visit Macau now

If you think Macau is all about extravagant entertainment or opulent dining experiences, you’re wrong. Before the end of 2018, the city is presenting a series of artsy events designed to stimulate your mind, from a pop art maze, to art exhibitions, to music and film festivals.

Keith Haring Maze Macao

The world’s first Keith Haring-themed maze has arrived in Macau. Held at Hall F, Cotai Expo of The Venetian Macao until December 31, the space features nearly 100 iconic images created by the late American pop art legend who is famous for his graffiti drawings in New York City undergrounds in the ’80s.

Near the entrance of the maze, a video documented Haring creating his murals in New York undergrounds is played in a metro-shaped booth. Inspired by the iconic heart image in Haring’s works, the maze is designed in the shape of a heart. It features multimedia experience, famous quotes from the artist, and 3D reproductions of the artist’s works.

32nd Macao International Music Festival

With “Enjoy – The Moment in Music” as the theme, this year’s music festival presents more than 20 classical and contemporary music performances by international musicians as well as local acts. The festival features acclaimed choir Stile Antico from the UK, French violinist Renaud Capuçon, classical guitar group Los Romeros from Spain, and electronic music groups Evade from Macau and FM3 from Beijing.
