September 15, 2021 (IANSlifeMacao Grand Prix Museum is officially open to visitors and residents after a massive renovation. Macao Government Tourism Office (MGTO) commenced the expansion construction project of the Macao Grand Prix Museum in 2017. The goal was to offer local and visiting museum-goers an innovative, fun-filled, educational and interactive journey into the world of the Macau Grand Prix’s motorsport culture. Upon completion of expansion construction this March, the museum had partly come into trial operation to refine and optimize the museum based on the feedback from different organizations and residents.

With its sophisticated confluence of history, sports, popular science, technology, culture, creativity and barrier-free accessibility approach, the Museum officially opens to the public in a brand-new design. The museum will gradually enrich its future calendar with parent-and-child interactive workshops and other activities to elevate the "tourism + sports" synergy.
