About Wonder World
Wonder World is the Machine of Nostalgia, a magical amusement park from the 1950’s transported through time to help instil a sense of belonging. The amusement parks of the 1950’s was used as a utopian setting where people could seek comfort and escape from the day-to-day grind. Special to Singapore’s cultural heritage, the amusement parks that captivated visitors in the 1950’s were more than fun attractions, they were worlds within themselves that provided spaces for ordinary people to follow their curiosities and aspire to a brighter and grand vision of tomorrow. The purpose of Wonder World is to recapture the spectacular atmosphere of the great trio of “world amusement parks” from yesteryear Singapore.
But simultaneously, within Wonder World, visitors are encouraged to ask themselves what fuels the Machine of Nostalgia and our longing for “simpler and better times''. The amusement park experience seeks to unravel the concept and our application of heritage to the future - a technologically advanced, culturally diverse, and interconnected city of today. In the age of remakes, remasters, and throwbacks, we invite visitors to look beyond the parts that we usually see. To reignite that sense of imagination and wonder in discovering new modes of fun but with meaningful excitement. Wonder World: The Machine of Nostalgia transports people back through time to investigate the very concept of nostalgia, and how it helps instil a sense of belonging and identity amidst the pursuit of life and our dreams.
Each ticket admits one person and entitles one to a pre-loaded card containing 10 credits which is to be redeemed exclusively onsite at Wonder World, and can be used for various activities including rides and game.

mi sono divertito un mondo a giocare a tutti i giochi e a scambiare i miei timbri guadagnati con merce esclusiva nel negozio meritocratico. Ho adorato anche la performance e l'arte~ <3
Mi sono divertito così tanto a Wonder World che non ho resistito a tornarci, e sono così felice di averlo fatto! Le nuove giostre e gli stand sono stati una bomba, e le descrizioni aggiunte del lavoro hanno davvero approfondito il mio apprezzamento per la creatività che c'è dietro tutto. Lo adoro! <3
Visitato il parco divertimenti della vecchia scuola. Il tema era la nostalgia. Molte giostre divertenti e stand di gioco. È stato emozionante e divertente
evento super divertente! io e i miei amici ci siamo divertiti un mondo l'ultimo giorno, lo spettacolo di magia è stato super bello e non c'era troppa gente
un'esperienza piuttosto interessante che cerca di incorporare elementi nostalgici. Ha persino personaggi del passato che camminano in giro
È stata una grande esperienza con un facile riscatto. Consiglio di visitare questa mostra prima che chiuda.
divertente e vivace! Anche se le code erano un po' lunghe e la fiera un po' piccola. Ma nel complesso è comunque qualcosa che consiglierei! Paga con Samsung Pay in loco / pass studenti su Klook per ottenere uno sconto di 5 $.
le giostre e i giochi sono nostalgia...portatene di più l'anno prossimo
Ottima aggiunta al Singapore Night Festival del 2024. Un po' tranquillo quando ci sono andato (mercoledì sera), ma immagino che sarà affollato nei weekend.
quel giorno piovigginava un po'. non c'era troppa gente quindi non ho dovuto fare molta coda. i giochi erano costosi e i gettoni sono finiti in fretta
