Singapore cable car celebrates 45 years

-

SINGAPORE 6 March 2019: Singapore Cable Car celebrates its 45 anniversary with event and F&B promotions at cable car stations and Faber Peak.

Owned by One Faber Group the cable car attraction announced a line‑up of activities, events and F&B ­promotions at Singapore’s only hilltop destination starting 30 March.

The Singapore Cable Car connects Mount Faber to Sentosa Island famed for its leisure attractions including theme parks and a casino.

An iconic attraction in its own right the cable car has played a significant role in Singapore’s tourism landscape for 45 years.

Offering panoramic views of Sentosa Island, Mount Faber and the Harbourfront, close to 57 million visitors have boarded the cars since the attraction opened in 1974.

Today, travellers sit in the comfort of spacious cable car cabins encased with floor-to-ceiling glass panels, that offer even greater viewing pleasure of the ever-changing views of Southern Singapore.

For over four decades, the Singapore Cable Car has scored many notable achievements, such as being featured in an episode of popular American television series Hawaii Five-O (1979); having played host to the contestants of the Miss World Pageant (1989), Asia’s first to offer sky dining in a cable car cabin (1998); and the world’s first Angry Bird themed cable car (2012).
