Before you go
Can I change or cancel a Battlebox booking?
No, the Battlebox allows no cancellations, refunds or changes once a booking is complete, so check your date and slot first. It recommends reserving online anyway, because basic entry is free but slots are limited. Children aged 4 and under enter free with no booking, though that entry leaves out the audio guide and anaglyph glasses.

What should I bring to the Battlebox?
Bring a smartphone and earphones for the enhanced experience, since only limited audio devices are on loan, first come, first served. Carry an identification card too if you bought a child or local ticket, because it is checked. Children aged 12 and under must be accompanied by a paying adult.

How do I get to the Battlebox from Dhoby Ghaut MRT?
The Battlebox is at 2 Cox Terrace inside Fort Canning Park, an 8-minute walk from Dhoby Ghaut MRT or 10 minutes from Fort Canning MRT. Fort Canning Park Carpark B is the nearest carpark. We'd pair it with the rest of Fort Canning Park, since the bunker visit takes about an hour.
