AFTER THE RIDE: Experience the thrills at LEGOLAND® Malaysia Resort with its first-ever vehicle and racing themed festival
Most rider ride their bike to a destination to chill and AFTER THE RIDE this time we bring you to a childhood destination for most bikers. When i was a young kid, I always love building Lego, cars, pirate ships, houses and castles. The love for vehicles, racing, and speed ignite the thrill for many children and adults too. For the first time ever, LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort has transformed the Theme Park into a world of racetracks, making way for the all new Build The Thrills Festival.
Set to beginning 15 April until 26 June, this festival brings together a list of buzzing activities and entertaining shows to keep everyone’s engines roaring with excitement, including a chance to witness and take photos with the iconic scaled-up LEGO Ferrari 512 M model. Weighing a whopping 280kg, at 2700 x 1200 x 700 mm, the life-sized 3D version, took 164 hours of design and development before another 480 hours to build with 78,496 bricks. Guests can also flex their creativity and imagination to build, test and race the LEGO vehicles of their dreams.
