Universal Studios Singapore is a theme park
situated inside Resorts World Sentosa on Sentosa Island, Singapore. It was a
key element of Genting's bid for the right to build Singapore's second
incorporated holiday resort. On 8 December 2006, the Singapore government
declared that the consortium had won the quote. Development of the theme park
and the rest of the resort began on 19 April 2007. It is the 2nd Universal
Studios theme park to start in Asia, and the 1st in Southeast Asia.
The formal
plans for the park were unveiled to the general public when Universal Studios
Singapore launched a park map to the general public on 20 October 2009.
Universal Studios Singapore has since drawn more than 2 million guests in the 9
months from its opening. Universal Parks and Resorts promotes the park as a
one-of-its-kind theme park in Asia and assures that the park will be the only
one of its kind in Southeast Asia for the up coming 30 years.
Universal Studios Singapore was opened up
for sneak peek week in view of the Chinese New Year Celebrations. Though guests
had to pay SGD$10 to enter the park even-though rides were not operating,
passes for the week were sold out in 2 days. On 5 March 2010, it was declared
that the park will open its doors at 8:28 am on 18 March 2010, for a
soft-starting phase. From 13 March 2010, the team people of Resorts World
Sentosa and their family members had a chance to check out the park prior to
the general public has a chance to do so. The park had its soft launching
period from 18 March 2010 to 26 October 2010.
The official awesome launching of the park
was organised on 28 May 2011, together with the grand opening gala being held
on 27 May 2011 evening. It was a star-studded celebration with Asian
celebrities Jet Li, Maggie Cheung, Zhao Wei, and former American Idol judge
Paula Abdul making an look at the gala event, coupled with some 1,600 guests.
In October 2011, Universal Studios Singapore started their Halloween Horror
Nights functions.
