First, there was Apple Orchard Road. Then came Apple Jewel Changi Airport. Now, Apple is ready to open its third and most unique store in Singapore yet.
❍ Apple Marina Bay Sands opens soon on Singapore’s waterfront. An opening date and time will be announced in the coming days.
❍ The new store continues Apple’s near 40-year history of recognizing Singapore as a significant technology and creativity hub. It’s the third Apple Store to open in the region in just over 3 years and Apple’s 512th location worldwide.
❍ Apple Marina Bay Sands is adjacent to the world-renowned resort and architectural destination. It’s the first Apple Store with a spherical design and the first perched on a body of water.

The pavilion dome narrows to an oculus, allowingunobstructed light to flood in. A birds-eye view of the store resembles a glass iris peering into the sky.
Apple Marina Bay Sandsis a gleaming orb resting on the waters of Singapore’s bayfront. During the day, the store’s glass panels reflect the towering skyline of the Downtown Core and motion of the rippling water.At night, the sphere glows with a gentle warmth, evoking the design of traditional lanterns carried during Singapore’sMid-Autumn Festival.
While totally unique, Apple Marina Bay Sands will still offer the signature experience and familiar store features customers have come to expect from Apple’s other locations in Singapore.
