Step into Gru's house

Super water views and Minion-insipired popcorn at Super Silly Fun Land
With a gorgeous view of USS' lagoon, Super Silly Fun Land is where you can fuel up and also go on a few rides. At Silly Swirly, guests can take off in uniquely-styled vehicles and spin and soar through the sky.
Those who are peckish can then head to Super Hungry Food Stand – a restaurant unique that's a larger-than-film version of the waterfront snack stand from Despicable Me – or Pop-A-Nana which boasts Minion-inspired popcorn flavours.
Minion dance party, anyone?
Super Silly Fun Land is also home to Buggie Boogie – a Minion dance party-themed carousel that's exclusive to Universal Studios Singapore where you can hop aboard a fleet of silly creatures and dance to remixed versions of popular songs.
