About KidZania Singapore
KidZania Singapore was an indoor edutainment theme park on Sentosa Island in the Palawan area. Opened in April 2016 at 31 Beach View, it recreated a kid-sized city where children aged 4 to 17 could role-play adult occupations. The 7,600 sqm facility featured over 60 role-play activities with real-world brand partners. It ceased operations in mid-2020 and remains permanently closed.
Visitors guide
The attraction was a large indoor, air-conditioned, purpose-built city with scaled streets, buildings, vehicles and establishments such as hospital, fire station, theatre, aviation academy and shops. Children wore uniforms and earned kidZos currency while performing role-play jobs, while parents observed from lounges. The site is located on Palawan Beach on Sentosa and is now permanently closed with no visitor access to the former activities.
