VIP rooms at Studio City Macau could open in September, according to Melco Crown’s chief operating officer Ted Chan Ying Tat, reports Asia Gaming Brief.

September opening for VIP rooms at Studio City

“We have one to two [junket operator] partners, plus our own in-house VIP play. Hopefully the VIP facilities will be opened this month,” said Chan, who was speaking at a Studio City press conference.

The operator revealed it was considering including VIP facilities in Studio City in July, with three VIP rooms to open as early as Q3 this year.

The VIP tables could be moved from existing operations owned by Melco Crown or by redeploying some of the mass-market tables as VIP tables. Chan said a decision had not yet been made, adding that he did not expect any difficulty in gaining government approval for the VIP tables.
