Built for the children whose imagination dresses up first.

Makeover Castle is the storybook moment in UFOREA — the zone children make their parents return to. Tucked inside a soft-pink turreted set with gold detailing and ring-lit vanity stations, it's the calmest, most photo-worthy zone on the floor.

  • 40+ costume piecesPrincess gowns, prince capes, fairy wings, knight tunics, Hanfu, capes, tiaras, sashes — fresh rotation, daily.
  • Three vanity stationsRing-lit mirrors, soft swivel chairs, and a child-height throne backdrop for portraits.
  • Sanitised & rotatedCostumes deep-cleaned weekly; accessories wiped on the same 2-hour cycle as the rest of UFOREA.
  • Parent-friendlyBench seating, sightlines from Cozy Nook, and the dress-up corridor opens onto the parents' lounge.
The pink-and-pearl vanity hub at UFOREA's Makeover Castle — three swivel-chair stations under ring lights, with mirrors and ornate trim
what's inside

Three rooms, one story.

Children enter through a small archway lit in soft gold. The first room is the wardrobe — pastel arches lined with hanging gowns, capes, and fairy outfits. Each costume is colour-grouped so even shy first-time visitors can pick something quickly.

The second room is the vanity hub — three Hollywood-style ring-lit mirror stations with proper swivel chairs at child height. There's a curated tray of stage props (tiaras, headbands, wands, fans) on each station; nothing breakable, nothing fragile.

The third is the throne room — a small velvet-trim alcove with a tiny gold throne against a soft-pink backdrop. This is where parents take the family photo. Most do.

a little advice

Tips from parents who've been.

one

Visit Makeover Castle early.

The castle gets busy after lunchtime — arriving close to the 10am opening means your child gets the full pick of costumes and the vanity stations to themselves.

two

Wear a plain top underneath.

Costumes layer over normal clothes. A plain white or cream tee underneath looks better in photos than a graphic shirt peeking through the lace.

three

Take the throne photo last.

Children do their best smiles after they've already played for ten minutes and warmed up. Save the formal portrait until they're comfortable and confident.

gentle answers

Makeover Castle questions.

Are the dress-up costumes for boys and girls?
Yes — Makeover Castle has both prince capes, knight tunics and king's-jacket suits as well as princess gowns, fairy dresses and Hanfu styles. Children pick what they want to wear.
What ages does Makeover Castle suit best?
It's a hit with ages 3–9. Toddlers under 3 enjoy the colours and mirrors with parental help; older kids dress up enthusiastically and use the photo wall for pictures.
Can I take photos in the Makeover Castle?
Absolutely. The castle is purpose-designed for photography — ring lights, vanity stations, a throne backdrop, and a full-length mirror. Parents take family photos every day.
Are the costumes washed?
Yes — the dress-up rotation is rotated and freshened daily, with a deeper laundry cycle weekly. Accessories (crowns, wands, sashes) are wiped down on the same 2-hour rolling sanitization schedule as the rest of the playground.
Is access included with a normal UFOREA ticket?
Yes. One UFOREA ticket gives unlimited play in all 9 zones including Makeover Castle — there is no extra charge for costumes, photo zones, or any of the props.
