Yes, we have multiple attractions and things to do in Singapore, but sometimes we just crave a change of scenery. Well, the answer to your “what should we do this weekend?” question isn’t that far after all. Euro Fun Park, a popular travelling carnival that’s now back in Johor Bahru with carnival-style rides and funfair games.
From now till 26th May 2024, grab your passports and head to JB because this amusement park isn’t staying for long.

It’s hard to believe that this amusement park is just a 20-minute drive from JB CIQ. With a total of 20 fun carnival-style rides and tons of funfair games, you might have to come back for a second time to really get a feel of each ride.
| Ride | Cost |
| Vortex | 6 tokens/ ~S$3.42 |
| Mega Coaster | 5 tokens/ ~S$2.85 |
| Challenger | 4 tokens/ ~S$2.28 |
| Sky Rider | 3 tokens/ ~S$1.71 |
| Rock & Roll, Super Jet, Formula 3000 | 2 tokens/ ~S$1.14 |
It won’t cost you much. Admission for adults and kids are RM6 (~S$1.70) and RM4 (~S$1.14) respectively, but you’ll also need to purchase tokens to be able to go on the rides itself. Each token costs RM2 (~S$0.57).
Tip: Plan beforehand which rides you’re planning to take since tokens for different rides vary.
Popular rides include the Euro Wheel (3 tokens) and Wave Swinger (2 tokens).

The fun in Euro Fun Park definitely lives up to its name, with a set of 4 rides all thrill seekers need to experience – the Challenger (4 tokens), Sky Rider (3 tokens), Vortex (6 tokens), and Rock & Roll (2 tokens).

Although strapped safely in your seat, you can expect 360-degree turns, swinging at full force towards the sky and lots of screaming – especially on the Challenger ride.
Say you’re coming with family, the kids won’t be left out since the majority of the park also has family-friendly rides. You’ve got “scarier” ones like the Mega Coaster (5 tokens) rollercoaster and Super Jet (2 tokens) that lets you “fly” up and down in your seat. For those who just want to take it slow, there are chill rides like the Formula 3000 (2 tokens), where you and your kid get to race in a car.
Other rides for kids include the Samba Balloon (4 tokens) and Space Flyer (5 tokens).

If adrenaline-pumping rides aren’t your thing, try your luck with the carnival games instead. You’ve got classics like Pop The Balloon and other new ones like Fish Bowl, where you fish out toy balls for some plushies. Prizes here are just like at any other theme park – you’ll take home giant, fluffy soft toys such as Spongebob and Doraemon.
