SINGAPORE – SuperPark Singapore, one of the largest indoor playgrounds here, closed last Thursday (October 8) after less than two years of operations.
Its landlord, Suntec City Mall, confirmed the closure. “We took over the SuperPark facility on October 8 because the operator was unable to come up with a concrete plan to restart operations,” said Anthony Yip, vice president of APM Property Management, property manager of Suntec City.
The Business Times reported on Sept. 29 that the park’s controlling company, SuperPark Asia Group, is under interim receivership with $ 18 million in liabilities.
Its closure follows in the footsteps of other children’s attractions such as Kidzania Singapore in Sentosa and Cool De Sac, also in Suntec City, which closed in June due to the pandemic.
Covering 40,000 square feet on two levels, SuperPark Singapore is the local outpost of a popular Finnish indoor activity park. It opened on November 17, 2018 and served both adults and children.
Other major indoor playgrounds in Singapore include Kiztopia at Marina Square, Amazonia at Great World City, and Waka Waka at Annex @ Furama.
Yip said APM is reviewing various options for the Suntec space, including renting to other indoor gaming operators or converting it into a shopper playground.
He added: “We will also consider inviting SuperPark’s interim judicial manager to submit a proposal to restart operations if they so wish.”
The Straits Times has contacted SuperPark Singapore and its Finnish parent company for comment.
