Legoland Windsor Resort has revealed it will open a new multi-million-pound land where mythical Lego creatures will ‘come to life’ 

The new land marks the single biggest investment at the park since its gates opened 25 years ago and Legoland promises it will allow ‘children’s imaginations and creativity to run wild’.

A teaser video for the new attraction, shared on social media this morning, shows a mythical portal to another world opening for the first time at the theme park.

In a hint to the creatures that families may find in this ‘parallel universe’, huge footprints shake the resort, a winged shadow flies overhead and the 30-second film ends with an ice storm engulfing Legoland Windsor’s iconic entrance.

The resort said: ‘Working in partnership with Kids Industries, the Legoland Windsor team behind the new land spent a year discussing and testing ideas and concepts with seven-to-11-year-olds and their parents, who influenced everything from the final ride experiences, names and characters.’

The land is currently under construction and is located between Heartlake City and the Resort’s Lego-themed hotels.

Thomas Jellum, divisional director at the Legoland Windsor Resort, said: ‘What better way to celebrate our 25th birthday than by unveiling a unique experience like nothing else we have launched at the resort since we opened.

‘At the heart of Lego Mythica: World of Mythical Creatures will be epic rides, including a UK first, and breathtaking mythical creatures designed to capture children’s imaginations and inspire them to build and play.

‘We can’t wait to share more details soon.’
