Mount Faber Leisure Group (MFLG) has added 13 new SkyOrb Cabins – the world’s first chrome-finished spherical cable car – to the Singapore Cable Car’s Mount Faber Line, bringing the fleet to 20 from mid-November 2025.
Each SkyOrb Cabin features illuminated rings, glass floors for panoramic views, and strategically-placed louvered windows to ensure optimal air ventilation and comfort. The expanded fleet now offers a full round-trip experience on the Mount Faber Line, which connects mainland Singapore to the resort island of Sentosa. This upgrade replaces the previous one-way ride and significantly increases the line’s capacity.
“MICE agents told us that this product was not suitable for delegates beforehand, as the wait for one SkyOrb used to take around five minutes. It is now a three-minute wait, and guests can even bring their drink along on the ride (if planners opt to combine it with a networking session at The Mirabilis Bar),” Jennifer Wong, MFLG’s director commercial, told TTGmice.
Also available for corporate events are The Mirabilis Bar at Mount Faber Peak, along with the adjoining Dusk restaurant, both of which renovated in July 2024 and can hold 130 pax seated or 180 pax standing. Other meeting spaces include a ballroom good for 200 pax banquet-style, and Angsana Glasshouse for 70 pax seated.
When asked what markets MFLG was keen to attract, Wong pointed to Indian incentives, as well as the longhaul market.
She added: “I work closely with World Express (a Singapore-based DMC), who helped to promote us at the IMEX Vegas 2025. World Express is also targeting longhaul MICE markets, markets where we are traditionally not strong in, but is direction we want to move in.”
Wong further shared how this partnership has helped to create a corporate events package, where groups can arrange for a one-hour networking session with free-flow drinks at The Mirabilis Bar – or hands-on activities like a cocktail-making workshop – before delegates board a SkyOrb.
“Targeting the business events sector is also in line with Singapore Tourism Board’s plans to triple MICE receipts by 2040,” said Wong, who pointed out that MFLG also recently confirmed their attendance at IBTM World.
“Our focus was previously predominantly leisure, but I notice that the MICE market has shifted, and there is talk about experiences. We can offer them experiences, meeting spaces, as well as F&B. It also helps we, together with Sentosa, have a variety of offerings that complement each other,” Wong stated.
For example, as Sentosa is a popular destination for beach-themed events for inbound corporate groups, she outlined how planners can have the gala dinner at Mount Faber, take the SkyOrb over to Sentosa, and continue with a party on Siloso Beach.
In addition, Wong also shared how MFLG creates innovative experiences around its cable cars, ranging from dining in a Peranakan heritage cabin, a champagne and truffles experience, as well as a fried chicken and beer package in the sky. All the above experiences can also be arranged for corporate groups.
