Madame Tussauds was founded in 1835, making it one of the oldest visitor attractions in the world. It’s also one of the most popular. So how do you get to be almost two centuries old and still delight millions of people every year? Madame Tussauds Singapore knows the secret. And we know the secret to saving 20% on your next visit.
Madame Tussauds is The Ultimate Fame Experience
What makes Madame Tussauds such a legend. might be the chance to brush with fame, after all there’s nowhere else that brings you so close to celebrities, lets you stand face to face with royalty, offers up-close-and-personal encounters with historic legends, and even gives you one-on-one time with your favourite superheroes.
In fact, when you put it like that, it’s almost certainly the fame-factor that appeals. But then there’s the impressive skill and artistry that goes into creating each wax figure, and there’s no doubt that plays a big part in Madame Tussauds’ popularity too.
Each wax figure takes at least three months to craft
It takes over 250 measurements and at least three months to create a figure and the pressure to get an exact likeness must be astonishing, because whether it’s someone famous or infamous, their recognisability is what makes them Madame Tussaud’s material. Plus, every figure of a living celebrity has to be endorsed by them. So we probably don’t need to tell you that only the best craftspeople have the qualities to create the world’s most detailed and lifelike wax figures.
Most of all Madame Tussauds delivers on fun
However, great artistic talent aside, one of the main reasons Madame Tussauds is so enduringly popular is its sense of fun.
This isn’t somewhere you wander around and admire the exhibits, it’s hands-on and interactive, always up for a selfie and not shy about getting visitors in on the act. And that can mean anything from sharing an epic post-goal moment with Cristiano Ronaldo to snagging a selfie with Lee Min Ho in the K-Wave zone.

And that goes for all the family because fun starts here at six years old and has no upper limit. So K-Pop keen teens are as welcome as history hunting grandparents or moms swooning over Ranveer Singh and dads channelling Vin Diesel.

Prepare for a fun take on history at Madame Tussauds Singapore
Even the building which houses Madame Tussauds Singapore delivers on history from its charming, traditional architecture to the fact that it was used as barracks during WWII.
However, the world’s oldest visitor attraction doesn’t do history lessons as you know them. Nothing here is dry and dusty, every learning moment is laced with fun and there’s no shortage of conversation starters.
And, lifelike as the wax figures are, nothing brings history to life like first hand experience, so expect to answer kids’ endless questions about anything from the Premiership of Lee Kuan Yew to the reign of Queen Elizabeth II.
