MACAU SAR -
Media OutReach Newswire
- 24 October 2025 - In celebration of the 15th National Games of China,
which will be hosted in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area,
as well as generating excitement for the table tennis competitions of
the 15th National Games – taking place at the Galaxy Arena
next month, Galaxy Macau™ has unveiled a large-scale art installation
themed around table tennis – a remarkable art piece that has
successfully achieved a new
GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title, namely
The largest display of coloured ping-pong/table tennis balls.
The creation of this record-breaking artwork aims to engage travellers
from around the world and local residents alike in the vibrant
atmosphere of the nation's highest-level sporting competition. It at the
same time underscores Galaxy Entertainment Group's (hereinafter
referred to as "GEG") long-standing commitment to promoting table tennis
and fostering the integration of sports and creativity.
Members from the Galaxy Entertainment Group management paid
visit during the curatorial stage of the artwork, expressing their unity
with the 15 team members creating the record-breaking piece.
Composed of 7,000 multi-coloured table tennis balls and meticulously
assembled by 15 dedicated team members from GEG, this visually stunning
installation echoes the 15th National Games, and is now on
display at "The Artistry of Table Tennis – Collectables & Art
Exhibition", currently held at Galaxy Macau's East Square. It is also a
remarkable demonstration of teamwork, reflecting the unity,
professionalism, and artistic passion of the GEG team. A visually
immersive centrepiece and a popular social media check-in spot, the
piece captures a high-energy rally between two table tennis athletes,
set against the backdrop of Galaxy Arena – Macau's largest indoor arena.
The record-breaking artwork reifies GEG's commitment to table
tennis and championing the fusion of sport and creativity across both
the Macau SAR and mainland China.
Receiving the award certificate at the ceremony on behalf of GEG, Mr.
Buddy Lam, Director of Corporate Affairs of GEG, remarked: "This
record-breaking art installation of the largest display of coloured ping-pong /table tennis balls
demonstrates GEG's unwavering support for the development of sports in
Macau, particularly the advancement of table tennis. It also underscores
the significance of Galaxy Arena as a premier venue for hosting major
sporting events in the city. Remarkably, this marks the third time that
GEG and its properties have been honoured with a Guinness World Record.
We hope this achievement will further contribute to promoting the
diversity of Macau's positioning as a 'World Centre of Tourism and
Leisure'.
This challenge strictly adhered to the specifications set by Guinness
World Records, with an official adjudicator, and two witnesses Mr. Chan
Chak Mo, President of the Sports and Olympic Committee of Macau, China
and Mr. Ma Chi Seng, Secretary-General of the Sports and Olympic
Committee of Macau, China present on-site to verify the achievement. It
was confirmed that Galaxy Macau successfully created
the largest display of coloured ping-pong/table tennis balls using 7,000 coloured table tennis balls, setting a new world record for this category.
The artwork design draws inspiration from the spirit of sport itself.
Table tennis – a game that demands speed, precision, and unwavering
focus – perfectly embodies the resilience and passion of athletes. More
than a static display, the piece is a dynamic visual narrative, blending
vibrant colour and thoughtful composition to unite the energy of sport
with the elegance of art.
Created with 7,000 vibrant table tennis balls by 15 GEG team
members in just four hours, the record-breaking installation is a
demonstration of exceptional unity, professionalism, and artistic
passion of the GEG team.
As the proud host of the table tennis events for the 15th National
Games, Galaxy Arena will take centre stage this November, welcoming
elite athletes from across the nation to compete for glory. This
landmark edition of the Games, jointly hosted by Guangdong, Hong Kong,
and Macau, marks the first time the event has been held in the Greater
Bay Area, symbolising a new era of unity and collaboration in Chinese
sport.
