Behind the SG Hotel on Wheels (SHOW) Concept
Jointly developed by Ultimate, the team behind AIRZONE, ART-ZOO, and the pop-up dessert Museum, together with LS Modular, a container specialist for installations such as Art-Box Singapore, and Market on Wheels, SHOW (SG Hotel on Wheels) is an innovation staycation concept that promises a new experience every time you visit. Spurred on by the popularity of their various 'pop-up' retail engagement concepts since 2018, Ultimate leveraged on their entertainment and attractions experience to develop a brand new nomadic vacation concept. Coupled with LS Modular's expertise in container modifications, SHOW is Singapore's first ROVING staycation experience!
Designed as a 'pop-up', SHOW seeks to offer a new refreshing 'staycay' experience inside and out with every venue it moves to. With each shift SHOW offers a brand new view, new activities, new experiences and a new backdrop for your staycations. Going from resort-style stays, to attraction themed experiences, and even to up-scale glamping experiences in a nature park, wilderness or just near a beach, the escapades are endless. Unlike their stationary counterparts, SHOW promises you a staycay that can truly rediscover all those hidden experiences in Singapore!
We hope to bring on an entirely new hotel/staycation idea for the market by constantly offering new unique experiences through our collaborations across a variety of venues. With the unique ability to pack up, dismantle, load up, and pop up at an entirely new location in a matter of days we challenge the notion of what hotels should be. - Sam Chiu, Co-founder, Ultimate.
