Illumination’s Minion Land will open at Universal Studios Singapore (USS) at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) in 2025, transporting guests in South-east Asia to an immersive, new land inspired by Illumination’s beloved Despicable Me and Minions franchise.
Minion Land will feature multiple rides, including Despicable Me Minion Mayhem and an all-new carousel exclusive to USS, Buggie Boogie, which features dance music remixed by the Minions, as well as a variety of themed retail and dining experiences.

Created in partnership between Universal Creative and RWS, Minion Land will comprise three distinct areas: Minion Marketplace, Gru’s Neighbourhood, and Super Silly Fun Land.
Minion Marketplace is the one-stop location to shop all things Minions including themed sweet treats and merchandise at three stores – Sweet Surrender, Pop Store and Fun Store.
Adjacent to Minion Marketplace is Gru’s Neighbourhood, where the former supervillain now lives with his family, and beneath their home lies Gru’s Lab and his loyal horde of Minions. This is where the popular Despicable Me Minion Mayhem immersive motion simulator ride will be.
Super Silly Fun Land, the seaside carnival from Despicable Me, is right across the street from Minion Marketplace and Gru’s Neighbourhood. Guests can look forward to the Buggie Boogie, the first-ever Minion dance party-themed carousel; Silly Swirly, spinning and soaring through the sky in colourful vehicles while catching views of Super Silly Fun Land and the lagoon; dining at the Super Hungry Food Stand restaurant; indulge in Minion-inspired popcorn flavours; have a go at the Space Killer game booth; and flip bananas at the Ba-Na-Na CaBaNa! for a chance to win prizes.
In addition, there are plenty of fun photo opportunities with the Minions.
“We are thrilled to bring Illumination’s Minion Land to Universal Studios Singapore at Resorts World Sentosa and transport fans in South-east Asia into the world of Illumination’s globally popular Despicable Me franchise,” said Lee Shi Ruh, president of RWS. “With its exciting line up of attractions, retail, and dining – some of which are exclusive to Universal Studios Singapore – Minion Land is poised to be a popular draw for both local and overseas visitors alike.”
Page Thompson, president of New Ventures, Universal Destinations & Experiences, shared: “The Minions are such well-loved characters and this newest land builds on the incredible storytelling from the Despicable Me and Minions franchises, brought to life in an exciting, immersive theme park setting. Guests are going to love this new addition.”
