Vasco – Bar and Lounge is named in honour of Vasco da Gama, the Portuguese explorer who set out to do what no man had ever done before – open a trade route from Portugal to the East. Vasco successfully bridged the East with the West in the Age of Discovery, and now more than 500 years later, Macau epitomises the perfect blend of these two extraordinary cultures.
Vasco – Bar and Lounge is an invitingly warm and spacious setting for drinks and light snacks. Guests often sit around the bar watching the bartenders in action and listening to stories about Macau’s past or relax in a more intimate corner deeper inside the bar overlooking the streets.
“Since Vasco – Bar & Lounge re-opened last Christmas, its curated cocktails and beverage program together with its live entertainment line-up is much loved in town, it has become one of the city’s popular hot spots for social gatherings, drinks and live entertainment,” said Mr Rutger Verschuren, Area Vice President, Macau Operations of Artyzen Hospitality Group and General Manager of Artyzen Grand Lapa Macau.
“This year again, we are thrilled to collaborate with Inside Asian Gaming on its Christmas After Dark event, by December our hotel lobby will be decorated with a stunning 5-meter red and gold Christmas tree. With our charming venue, artisanal drinks as well as the top-notch hospitality, together with IAG, we look forward to welcoming everyone to this very special networking event.”
