The management of the Singapore Flyer said yesterday that it is working with tenants to draw visitors back to the attraction.
On the cards is a free concert on Wednesday at the waterfront Flyer Theatre organised by one of the tenants, Love The World, a bistro.
The management is supporting the gig as part of the drive to bring visitors back, said a spokesman.
The 165m-tall giant observation wheel was closed last Tuesday, after 173 people were trapped in its capsules for about six hours, following an electrical fire that cut off power to the wheel.
It is likely to remain closed until New Year's Day.
Meanwhile, business has plunged for the 25 tenants in the terminal. They include restaurants and retail shops.
The passengers were freed by rescuers from Dive-Marine Services, a private company hired by Singapore Flyer, and the Singapore Civil Defence Force.
Eleven passengers were lowered to the ground by rope harnesses, while the rest got off when the Flyer resumed movement.
Besides the Flyer, there are at least seven other adrenalin-inducing activities in Singapore, ranging from the Reverse Bungee to amusement park rides which do 360 degree turns.
In the light of the Flyer incident, The Sunday Times checked out their safety procedures.
