Madame Tussauds Singapore

An indoor wax museum on Sentosa with lifelike figures of film, music and sports stars, and plenty of photo moments.

About Madame Tussauds Singapore

Madame Tussauds Singapore is a wax museum on Sentosa island. It is filled with lifelike figures of famous people from film, music, sport and entertainment.

The museum is part of the well-known Madame Tussauds group, which started in London. It sits in the Imbiah area, in the middle of Sentosa.

Why visit Madame Tussauds Singapore

The main reason to come is the photos. You can stand next to your favourite stars, strike a pose and use props to set the scene.

Unlike many museums, you are encouraged to get close to the figures. That makes it a relaxed and playful visit for all ages.

It is also fully indoors and air-conditioned. That makes it a useful plan for a hot afternoon or a rainy day on Sentosa.

The museum also features stars from across Asia, alongside global names. Look out for figures linked to Singapore and the region.

What to see and do

The museum is set out in themed zones. Each zone has its own set design, lighting and props.

  • Film and screen stars: pose with figures of actors and well-known characters.
  • Music icons: step on stage with pop and rock stars.
  • Sports heroes: line up beside famous athletes.
  • Asian stars: meet figures from Asian film, music and TV.

The figures and zones change over time, as new stars are added. Check the official website to see what is on during your visit.

Some tickets include extra experiences on top of the wax figures. Look at the ticket details on the official website to see what is currently included.

Take your time in each zone. The best photos come when you study the pose and copy it, so do not rush.
