Bollywood Legend Shah Rukh Khan to Attend Grand Opening of City of Dreams Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is set to witness one of its most glamorous nights as Bollywood’s global icon, Shah Rukh Khan, arrives in Colombo for the grand opening of the City of Dreams Sri Lanka.

Located in the heart of Colombo at 01 Justice Akbar Mawatha, the City of Dreams Sri Lanka (formerly known as Cinnamon Life Integrated Resort) is a joint venture between John Keells Holdings and Melco Resorts & Entertainment. This multi-billion-dollar project is expected to redefine the country’s skyline and tourism industry. With over 800 luxurious hotel rooms, a world-class casino, retail experiences, fine dining, wellness centers, and premium event spaces, the City of Dreams stands as a bold symbol of Sri Lanka’s emerging global appeal.
Shah Rukh Khan, one of the most celebrated film personalities in the world, will be the Guest of Honour at the invite-only opening ceremony. His presence adds an extraordinary charm to the event, attracting media attention and fans from across the region. While public access to the event is restricted, anticipation continues to build as Sri Lankans and global audiences look forward to seeing the superstar on Lankan soil after several years.
The opening night is expected to feature stunning performances, a showcase of Sri Lankan culture, and appearances by top-tier celebrities and dignitaries. This event also reflects a growing cultural and economic bond between Sri Lanka and India, with Shah Rukh Khan’s visit symbolizing not just cinematic glamour, but regional unity and celebration.
As Colombo prepares to roll out the red carpet, the City of Dreams Sri Lanka promises to usher in a new era of entertainment and tourism in the country.
