Wonder Full, the spectacular light and water show that captivates audiences every night at Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands, has been awarded the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) Gold Award for outstanding contributions to the tourism industry in the category of Heritage and Culture.

Created by Laservision, the 13-minute show on the waters of Marina Bay beat hundreds of entries worldwide to take home the prestigious award of which past winners include the Hong Kong Tourism Board, the Tourism Authority of Thailand, Tourism Malaysia and Hong Kong Disneyland Resort.

Wonder Full is a stunning showpiece of visual effects using interweaving lasers, searchlights, LEDs, video projectors and giant streaming water screens.

Marina Bay Sands Chief Executive and President George Tanasijevich states “Wonder Full  is truly a water, land and sky-based 360-degree experience like no other.

“It acts as a beacon across the bay, encouraging locals and tourists alike to visit Singapore and Marina Bay Sands. We are very proud of this most recent award.”
