Mount Faber Leisure Group (MFLG) Managing Director Buhdy Bok expressed excitement about the final installment of the Golden Jubilee celebration. Aligning with Hello Kitty's birthday on November 1, this collaboration combines the Singapore Cable Car’s scenic views with Hello Kitty’s charm, promising a memorable experience at one of Singapore’s most iconic attractions.
At the entrance to Mount Faber Peak, guests will encounter a grand Hello Kitty sculpture in a gold outfit, marking the anniversary in style. Additionally, a 2-meter-tall Hello Kitty in her signature red bow and blue overalls welcomes visitors at the boarding deck, alongside vintage first- and third-generation cable car cabins featuring Hello Kitty and Dear Daniel.

Tickets are priced at S$35 for adults and S$25 for children ages 4 to 12, with an option to upgrade for S$10, granting unlimited one-day access to all themed cabins. Children under 3 ride free.
Established in 1974, the Singapore Cable Car has welcomed over 60 million visitors, providing scenic journeys between Mount Faber Peak and Sentosa. The 50th-anniversary celebration, launched in 2023, features a year-long series of events at Mount Faber Peak, with the Hello Kitty garden party-themed experience serving as a highlight. Fans can stay updated via MFLG’s social media platforms or visit the website for more information.

Lea Salonga's First Ever Wax Figure Takes Center Stage with Unveiling at Madame Tussauds Singapore

Broadway legend Lea Salonga set the stage ablaze as she unveiled her wax figure with Madame Tussauds Singapore, at an exclusive event in Manila, Philippines.

Lea is a multiple award-winning singer and actress recognised not only in the Philippines but the entire world. Her remarkable performance as the first-ever Asian to play Eponine in the musical Les Misérables left a lasting impression on Broadway, as did her Tony and Olivier Award winning performances as Kim in Miss Saigon, and her legendary voice work for Disney princesses Jasmine and Mulan.

Lea enthused, “I am deeply honored and thankful to receive my own wax figure. The wait is over, and I'm thrilled for you all to see it. It means so much to me to be able to join the remarkable lineup of Filipinos immortalised at Madame Tussauds.”

The unveiling event was held at the luxury entertainment destination Solaire Resort Entertainment City in Parañaque, Metro Manila, where 10 lucky fans won a chance to meet Lea and her wax twin. “We're thrilled to welcome Lea to our star-studded attraction!” shared Elaine Quek, Head of Sales and Marketing at Madame Tussauds Singapore. “Our team of expert sculptors spent up to six months making the figure, paying meticulous attention to detail to ensure that this wax figure captures her spirit and charisma. Together with Lea, we have chosen a pose that exudes her magnetic presence on stage where her talent and personality shine through. We hope that through this figure, her legacy continues to inspire visitors globally.”

To celebrate this launch even more, Madame Tussauds Singapore has also partnered Klook Philippines with a limited-time 1-for-1 Madame Tussauds ticket promotion.
