Tiong Bahru Plaza’s Old Cinema Turns Into a 20,000 Sq Ft VR and High Ropes Park

Xventure Singapore, the new indoor adventure park from the home-grown company behind Kiztopia, opens on 20 November 2026 in the former cinema space at Tiong Bahru Plaza. If your group chat is already arguing about November plans, the cheapest moment to commit is now: pre-sale Single Admission tickets are 20% off until Saturday, 31 October, before the discount drops to 10%.

Ten Zones Where the Screen Used to Be

According to Xventure, the park covers 20,000 sq ft on the fourth floor of the mall, with 10 play zones and more than 30 challenges that mix immersive multiplayer virtual reality (VR), physical obstacles and high-energy rides. The zones carry names like the Slide Park, Challenger Arena, Digital Play Zone, Obstacle Zone and Air Court. Taken together, that sounds less like a playground and more like a full afternoon out.

It’s the first indoor active-entertainment destination the Kiztopia team has opened in Singapore. Its stated aim is to extend the appeal of play beyond childhood. For anyone who has spent years rotating between the same movie, bubble tea and café combo in the same few malls, a place built for climbing and sliding with friends is a welcome change of script!

VR Your Friends Can Watch

The headline act is what Xventure bills as Singapore’s first MIRRA Arena, a zone built around immersive multiplayer VR. The detail that sold us is the large screen that shows the live gameplay, so friends who aren’t wearing a headset can follow the action instead of standing around guessing what’s happening.

That makes the MIRRA Arena our pick for bigger groups. VR has a reputation for being a solo, slightly antisocial hobby, and a shared screen turns it into something closer to a spectator sport, where the people waiting their turn get to cheer, heckle and plan their revenge round. Who needs a cinema when your friends are the show?

Eleven Challenges Up High, Then Glide

For people who’d rather sweat than wear a headset, the High Ropes Course packs 11 elevated challenges meant to test balance and coordination. Make it to the end and the Air Glide carries you through the park, which is a far more satisfying finish line than a flight of stairs.

The Slide Park has three ways down. There’s a wave slide that rides a series of curves, an airborne launch that drops you onto a large airbag, and a Roller Ski Slide for anyone who wants to mix things up. If your group only films one thing that day, make it the airbag launch, since nothing else on the list promises a moment of actual air time.

Win Prizes Before the Doors Open

You don’t have to wait until opening day to get a taste. The Xventure Pop-Up runs from 9 to 19 November, daily from 11am to 8pm, at Tiong Bahru Plaza’s Level 1 External Atrium, and it has two ways to play.

Guess The X gives visitors a chance to win prizes worth up to S$500. The X Mission sets endurance, agility and balance challenges, and finishing them lets you redeem Xventure merchandise plus a S$10 ticket discount voucher. The top 10 leaderboard winners will be named at the grand opening, and first place takes home prizes worth more than S$1,000.

Of the two, The X Mission is the better use of a lunch break. A guessing game leaves things to luck, while completing the mission is what unlocks the merch and the voucher, so effort counts for something. It’s a smart warm-up for the real park, too.

Opening Weekend and the Ticket Timing

The celebrations run from 20 to 22 November, with climbing wall challenges, timed competitions, Surf Slide photo moments and DJ sessions. If you like your first visit loud and busy, that’s the weekend to go.

The ticket maths is simple. The 20% pre-sale discount on Single Admission tickets ends on 31 October, and from 1 to 19 November it becomes 10% off. If your group has already made up its mind, buy before Saturday.
