GENTING SkyWorlds opened its gates for a soft opening on February 8. The theme park is currently offering a 20% discount from its published rates for bookings until March 31. During this period, some attractions, rides, and offerings will be operating on a limited-basis, while some remain unavailable as they are still in the final commissioning process.
To help visitors get the most out of their visit, here are seven quintessential tips to maximise your Genting SkyWorlds experience:
Book tickets in advance for guaranteed entry
Park capacity for Genting SkyWorlds during the soft opening period will be limited. As such, guests should plan their trip ahead and secure tickets as early as possible. Guests can book their tickets online via the official website at www.gentingskyworlds.com or via the Genting SkyWorlds’ Mobile App (downloadable via Google Play, Apple App Store and Huawei AppGallery*).
*The App will only be available on the Huawei App Gallery in April 2022
Download the Genting SkyWorlds Mobile App
The Genting SkyWorlds Mobile App is an absolute essential for visitors to the theme park. With real time information, the app enables guests to navigate and experience the park. They can also check wait times for rides, attractions, and shows, as well as receive promotional offers and vouchers. Guests can also discover dining, shopping, skill games, photo services, and locate amenities.
The app also integrates with the Virtual Queue (VQ) - a attraction reservation and Itinerary Planning service. This feature allows guests to make reservations for selected attractions and experiences prior to and during their visit to Genting SkyWorlds. The VQ experience also allows guests to:

While outside food and beverages are not allowed inside the theme park, there is a selection of food and beverage outlets to cater to a variety of taste buds, dietary needs, and budgets.
Cashless Theme Park

The theme park is open to fully vaccinated guests. Non-vaccinated guests who are 12 years old and below and from the same household are allowed to enter the theme park accompanied by fully vaccinated guests. To ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience, it is essential that guests adhere to all rules, regulations, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) such as wearing a face mask at all times, MySejahtera QR scanning for contact tracing, using contactless or cashless payment as well as practicing physical distancing.
Be prepared for a fun-filled adventure

Even during the soft opening period, there is plenty to experience and with the unique cool climate, it can offer an escape from work, school and the heat. – The Vibes, March 2, 2022
