The UK’s first LEGOLAND Discovery Centre opened in Manchester’s Trafford Centre on March 22, 2010.
LEGOLAND Discovery Centre is like a life-sized box of LEGO. Children can learn how the famous bricks are made on the LEGO factory tour, the master model builder will share his top tips for creating the best LEGO models in his master class and iconic scenes from the North West are recreated in the fantastic Miniland.
Kids can battle against trolls to save a beautiful princess on Kingdom Quest, the interactive LEGO laser ride, or they can experience being part of the action in the 4D cinema. Other features of the attraction include a LEGO Racers build and test track, LEGO Belville area and a DUPLO Village featuring a soft play section, plus a café and a shop featuring a huge range of LEGO products.
Located in The Trafford Centre, Manchester, the Centre opens from 10am, 7 days a week (closing times vary) with day tickets costing £7 per adult or child – click here for details.
