Bringing KidZania Singapore Back to Life
Earlier on 31 July 2023, Sim Leisure Group had taken over KidZania Singapore from Sentosa Development Corporation.
The handover ceremony was graced by Thien Kwee Eng, Chief Executive Officer of Sentosa Development Corporation, Dato’ Sim Choo Kheng, Founder and Chairman, Sim Leisure Group, Datin Silviya Georgieva, Governor, KidZania Singapore, Executive Director, Sim Leisure Group, and Philip Whittaker, Chief Executive Officer of Sim Leisure Group.
Sim Leisure Group, a theme park developer and operator listed on the Singapore Exchange’s Catalist board, began the refurbishment of KidZania Singapore from 1 August 2023 as part of the process of bringing the 7,600 square metre attraction at Sentosa’s Palawan Beach back to life.
KidZania 5.0
When it reopens, the refurbished KidZania Singapore will be amongst the few KidZania facilities around the world to be based on the KidZania 5.0 blueprint, the fifth iteration of KidZania’s evolution.
This will introduce new professions with a focus on sustainable development with the kid-sized, role-playing city.
Dato’ Sim Choo Kheng, Founder and Chairman, Sim Leisure Group, said: “KidZania Singapore excites me as I am able to use my creativity to bring in a new genre of occupations. This includes exciting role plays such as Environmentalist and Environmental Protection Agent that are in line with the current need to raise awareness and understanding of environmental social protection. Today, businesses cannot merely be good at sustaining profits, but should also have a positive impact on today’s environmental and social issues. We are very encouraged by many of the Singaporean companies we have spoken to, who want to collaborate with us to introduce ESG-centric role play activities.”
In addition to developing KidZania 5.0, the Sim Leisure Group is also planning to expand its foray int Singapore’s attractions industry with new entertainment experiences such as the Haven XR Cinemas, an immersive cinematic adventure.
KidZania Singapore is slated to reopen in Q1 2024.
