Pororo Park Singapore to open November

Pororo Park Singapore will open at Marina Square next month, the first for the animated penguin in Southeast Asia.

Pororo is South Korea’s most popular cartoon character. The award-winning animation is broadcasted over 130 countries, including Disney Junior Channel and Okto Channel in Singapore. It’s dubbed ‘President of Kids’ with over 6.8 billion views on its YouTube channel.

The new venue will open in Singapore on November 11, a collaboration between Iconix and DreamUs Edutainment. It is the first Pororo Park in Southeast Asia and the first outside South Korea and China.

Located in Marina Square’s new retail wing, the 1000 sqm indoor edutainment playground will integrate a theme ride, indoor playground attractions, retail store, cafe, educational classes and entertaining shows under one roof.

Pororo Park Singapore is themed around the animated series that follows the adventurous Pororo and friends, who often encounter challenges and learn practical and moral lessons through their exciting adventures in Porong Porong Forest.

The venue includes Loopy’s Café and Rody’s Toy Store. The 60-seater Loopy’s Café serves food for both adults and children, with a view of the Marina Bay skyline.

Visitors can get their retail therapy and purchase their favourite original character-themed souvenirs from Rody’s Toy Store. The store will house a variety of items ranging from toys, stationery to kid apparels and other souvenir items.

Kim Jiwon, CEO of DreamUs Edutainment says Pororo Park Singapore aims to be the premier indoor playground in Singapore with top-quality attractions, well-loved characters and a unique mix of education and entertainment elements.

“Modern busy parents will now have a one-stop location to entertain and educate their energetic, inquisitive young children.”
