Singapore, 24 May 2023 – With the arrival of the June school holidays and parents in search of engaging activities for their children, the Pokémon Experience offered by Singapore Cable Car presents an ideal opportunity for families of all generations to relish breathtaking vistas and create cherished memories together.
From now to 30 September 2023, visitors to Mount Faber Peak, HarbourFront and Sentosa will catch a glimpse of a rare sight – an eye-catching line of 67 Poké Ball cabins soaring 100 metres above sea level. The exteriors of cable car cabins on the Mount Faber Line will be wrapped in the distinctive red and white colours of Poké Balls.
Much like the inspiration behind their outward appearance, inside each cabin awaits a surprise -- five different interior designs, each themed around first-generation Pokémon like Pikachu and Eevee, as well as Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly from the latest Pokémon video games.
Families and Pokémon fans will experience something new each time they ride on the Singapore Cable Car, marvelling at a vibrant assemblage of newly-installed beautiful, multicoloured lights at Mount Faber Station, HarbourFront Station, and Sentosa Station.
Families planning their June holiday itinerary are encouraged to take advantage of this limited-time opportunity and create exceptional, lasting memories together.
The Singapore Cable Car Pokémon Experience is an exciting and convenient trip to and from Sentosa for families having a staycation nearby or heading to the beach for a day of sun and fun.
Atop the verdant hilltop destination of Mount Faber Peak, visitors will also be able to snap pictures at various photo points—including vintage cable car cabins—with a variety of Pokémon like Pikachu, Pichu, Snorlax, and Psyduck to capture beautiful memories with their loved ones.
Visitors can win themselves a free icy treat—a refreshing mango or strawberry-flavoured ice-cream—by taking part in a social media giveaway by posting photos of themselves with at least two different Pokémon featured on the Singapore Cable Car on their personal Instagram or Facebook accounts with the hashtag #SGCableCar50 and tag @MountFaberLeisure.
Their complimentary ice-cream can be redeemed at the Singapore Cable Car Gift Shop @ Mount Faber Peak and the Singapore Cable Car Gift Shop @ Imbiah Lookout, limited to one redemption per visitor and while stocks last.
Tickets to the Singapore Cable Car are available over the counter and on the MFLG website at the regular price of $35 for adults and $25 for children aged between 4 and 12 for a round-trip ride on the Mount Faber Line and Sentosa Line.
Visitors can also opt for a $10 top-up for one-day unlimited rides in all five designs of the Pokémon cabins, adding value to their visit. Children aged 3 and below ride for free.
All over-the-counter purchases of Mount Faber Line cable car tickets and bundles will entitle visitors to receive a complimentary collectible Pokémon-themed sun visor, while stocks last. The visors are available in four adorable designs—Pikachu, Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly.
Celebrate with the iconic Singapore Cable Car
Since its inception in 1974, the Singapore Cable Car has cemented its iconic status as one of the nation’s most recognisable attractions, having served more than 60 million visitors over the decades as the most scenic way to travel between Mount Faber Peak and Sentosa.
Ahead of its Golden Jubilee in February 2024, MFLG will begin a year-long celebration to commemorate 50 years of delightful experiences on the Singapore Cable Car – Mount Faber Line while allowing visitors to create countless more unforgettable memories.
Starting with a special Pokémon experience on the Mount Faber Line, visitors can also look forward to a series of activities and F&B delights for the whole family that will debut later in the year.
