20th Century Fox Theme Park
The 20th Century Fox Theme Park at Genting Malaysia will be the first of its kind globally and will undergo renovations from 1st September 2013 till late
In this agreement between 20th Century Fox and Genting Malaysia Berhad, the current Genting Theme Park will be closed from the said date for the massive renovations that will take almost two four to five years.
According to Resorts World Genting, Update Jan 2019: The Genting 20th Century Fox Theme Park has been cancelled.
In just two years, at least 4 new theme parks have opened in Malaysia, with more on the way. Genting’s joint venture with 20th Century Fox is a winning formula where a lack of international attractions is found in Malaysia.
The current Genting Theme Park is closed for renovations, and there is currently a lot of hype that has been planned for the opening of the all-new 20th Century Fox Theme Park here in Malaysia.
According to plans, the theme park’s investment was part of an RM3 Billion Resort World Genting refurbishment program, which includes the construction of an additional 1,300 hotel rooms adjoining the First World Hotel.
Some of the rides and attractions will also be based on movies like Rio, Ice Age, Life of Pi, Alien vs Predator and Night At The Museum.
A unique Dream Parade featuring a one-of-a-kind animatronics parade based on all characters and titles represented at the theme park will also be one of the highlights when opened. Not forgetting the many retail merchandises and themed food and beverage outlets here.
Ticket prices have yet to be announced, but it will probably be in 2015, 2018 or 2019, and prices will be relatively competitive with other theme parks here in Malaysia.
In April 2018, the world’s first Fox World Studio Store opened in Malaysia and at SkyAvenue Genting, ahead of the new theme park.
Malaysia’s first theme park, called Genting Theme Park, was opened in 1978 as Genting Amusement and Recreation Park and the only themed destination in the ’70s.
Genting Malaysia now owns six hotel properties at Resorts World Genting;
- Maxims Genting Highlands Hotel,
- Theme Park Hotel
- Resort Hotel
- Awana Genting Highlands
- Awana Golf & Country Resort
- First World Hotel
Aside from Resorts World Genting, the group owns Resorts World Singapore, Resorts World Casino New York City in the US and over 40 casinos in the United Kingdom.
In Malaysia, Genting Malaysia also operates two seaside properties: Resorts World Kijal in Terengganu, and the Resorts World Langkawi, on the island of Langkawi in Kedah.
