Essential Tips for Visitors
Get the Official App: The “POP LAND” official app is your digital key. Download it (available in English) to check real-time ride queue times, show schedules, AR interactive functions, and access your park ticket. It also helps you find hidden stamp points and NPCs.
Skip the Lines: Consider purchasing an Express Pass (for one-time priority access) or an Unlimited Express Pass to maximize your time on popular experiences like the MOLLY Workshop and LABUBU puzzle activity, especially on weekends when queues can be over 1 hour long.
Passport is a Must: Carry your physical passport with you at all times. It is required for entry, for any ticket or Express Pass verification, and is your main form of ID in China.
Lockers are available at the park entrance (free for small bags, ¥30–¥50 for large luggage per day). Bring a reusable water bottle—there are free drinking water stations throughout the park to save money.
Other Tips: Wear comfortable shoes—you’ll walk 2–3 hours exploring the park. Wear colorful clothes to match the park’s vibrant atmosphere for better photos. Bring a power bank, as taking photos will consume a lot of phone battery. You can bring unopened food into the park to save on dining costs. Be polite to the cleaning staff—they often carry IP stickers and will give them to you if you ask nicely.
