Here’s everything you need to do and see at Resorts World Sentosa before the year ends:
1. See the Sea Jellies at Singapore Oceanarium
The Singapore Oceanarium—newly renovated and much bigger than before—is highlighting its display of Sea Jellies this holiday season, and you can even go behind-the-scenes to learn about sea jelly husbandry and the aquarium’s conservation and breeding efforts through a guided program.
Program runs until November 23, 2025.
2. Meet and Greet Hangyodon at the Singapore Oceanarium
Another must-do while in the Singapore Oceanarium is to meet the adorable Sanrio character Hangyodon! Snap a pic with him and enjoy the exclusive Hangyodon-themed treats, including a mantou, croffle, and gelato, right after at the Explorer’s Nook.
The Hangyodon Meet and Greet runs until January 4, 2026, every day at 3 PM (and at 12NN on Fridays to Sundays and Public Holidays).
3. Get up close with dozens of rays at the Adventure Cove Waterpark Ray Bay
A definite must-do when at the Adventure Cove Waterpark is the Ray Bay Experience, where you can get up close to plenty of rays, interact with them, and feed them!
The Ray Bay Experience happens every day at 11AM, 1PM, and 3PM. Booking required.
4. Go down the yellow brick road to see all the “Wicked” installations
In time for the world premiere of “Wicked: For Good,” Resorts World Sentosa transformed itself into the Land of Oz, where guests can visit plenty of installations inspired by the movie-musical just by following the yellow brick road. You’ll find Glinda’s Bubble, Elphaba’s Hat, the Emerald City Express, and the majestic Emerald City itself! Read more about the “Wicked” experience at Resorts World Sentosa here.
5. Spend a whole day at Universal Studios Singapore
Of course, no trip to Resorts World Sentosa is complete without spending a day at Universal Studios Singapore! Here, you’ll be greeted by the Wizard of Oz’s head where you can tell him your heart’s truest desire, and even meet Glinda and Elphaba costume characters in the area. Plenty of establishments in the theme park also offer “Wicked”-themed snacks, drinks, and souvenirs for you to enjoy and take home.
Do check out Minion Land too, which just opened in February 2025, and try the Singapore-exclusive ride Buggie Boogie, a Minion dance party-themed carousel. The beloved indoor ride Minion Mayhem can also be found here, as well as the Silly Swirly that takes you on an adventure to capture amazing views of the entire place in the air.
