LEGOLAND Malaysia Lines Up a Great Celebration for 1st Anniversary

LEGOLAND Malaysia celebrates 1st anniversary

NUSAJAYA, 13th September 2013 – Asia’s first LEGOLAND^® will mark a hugely successful year when it celebrates its first birthday on Sunday. The popular family theme park, which has become a key driver of tourism to Southern Malaysia, is promising visitors three full days of family fun from 14th to 16th September. At one year young LEGOLAND is growing up fast and plans are already afoot to transform it into a resort comprising a Theme Park, Water Park and Hotel.

Special celebrations will take place around a giant LEGO® cake, which Park visitors have been helping to build over the past week. It is made from over 300,000 bricks and measures three metres wide. A whole host of birthday entertainment has been planned for the birthday including dance performances, a children’s disco party and unique 3D-LEGO fireworks displays, where bricks appear to be falling from the sky. On Sunday 15th September visitors will be able to have their cake and eat it because slices of a real birthday cake will also be available. All proceeds from sales of the cake will go to Merlin’s Magic Wand, a worldwide charity for underprivileged children. Visitors to the Park can purchase the birthday cake from The Café for RM3 throughout the day.

As a special treat LEGOLAND will also give free entry to anyone who shares its birthday. Visitors born on 15th September will get free entry on the day and be will be given exclusive rates (RM 90 per day ticket) to bring up to five friends when they visit. Detailed information on the offer and activities can be found on the LEGOLAND Malaysia website: http://www.legoland.com.my/en/Plan/1st-Anniversary/

Siegfried Boerst, General Manager of LEGOLAND Malaysia said: “We are very excited about the first anniversary and look forward to celebrating it with our guests. It has been an extremely successful year for Asia’s first LEGOLAND. In the last twelve months we have added two new attractions and our visitors are enjoying the Park more than ever. As we celebrate one major milestone we are already anticipating another, because in October we will open our brand new Water Park. ”

Asia’s first LEGOLAND Water Park opens on 21st October and it is leading the transformation of LEGOLAND Malaysia into a family resort destination with more than 70 rides, slides, shows and attractions. Boerst added, Annual Pass renewals have started online and at the Ticketing Counters at LEGOLAND Malaysia. Those renewing now will enjoy extra validity until December 2014 if their current Annual Pass expires in September, October, November or December 2013. Maybank customers will also enjoy special offers if they renew now.
