Come 2025, there will be something huge for Hello Kitty fans to look forward to – an amusement park and hotel themed after their favourite characters to open in Hainan, China. 

Branded as Sanya Hello KItty Resort, its attractions include rides, a hotel and shops centred around Hello Kitty with local elements from the Chinese region.

Construction of the 52-acre resort began last December, with its amusement park section set to open in the second half of 2024.

In addition to the theme park, a Hyatt-imprint Hello Kitty hotel will open in 2025, with 221 rooms and villas decorated with Hello Kitty designs and other well-known Sanrio characters.

Overseeing developer Keyestone Group will provide updates online as the construction progresses.

In the meantime, fans can consider visiting Sanrio Puroland in Tokyo instead or book a Hello Kitty-themed staycation package at Fairmont Singapore.
