Jurong Play Grounds
The weekend’s finally here, and the whole family – including your furbabies – wants to hang out. The only problem? Most places are either pet-friendly, kid-friendly, or adult-friendly, which usually means someone’s left out. Well, you and the fam won’t have to worry about that at Jurong Play Grounds, a lifestyle hub with amenities for kids, adults, and your furry companions.
What is there to do at Jurong Play Grounds?
Spanning a whopping 32,980sqm – roughly the size of 6 or 7 football fields – there’s plenty to explore at Jurong Play Grounds, where the fun revolves around 3 main themes: Eat, Play, and Grow. Naturally, that means a wide array of highlights to check out, which we’ll cover as we go along.

If it starts raining in the first 30 minutes of your session – or if it was already pouring when you arrived – you’ll be able to reschedule for another day at no extra charge.
