New Sentosa beach bazaar to bring back old musical fountain

The Central Beach Bazaar, next to Beach Station, will open in September, Mr Buhdy Bok, managing director of Mount Faber Leisure Group, a subsidiary of the Sentosa Development Corporation, said yesterday.

The day-to-night bazaar will have three new attractions, including what is said to be the tallest fountain in South-east Asia and a multifood and beverage concept.

The new musical fountain will use the existing infrastructure of the outdoor night show Wings of Time, which has been upgraded to include more pyrotechnic effects.

The musical fountain was a prominent feature of Sentosa’s landscape from 1982 to 2007, and a crowd favourite then.
