Thrills festival at the launch event

The love for vehicles, racing and speed will ignite the thrill for many children and adults at this, first ever vehicle and racing themed festival.

 

The festival brings together a host of buzzing activities and entertaining shows to keep everyone’s engines roaring with excitement, including a chance to see and capture photo mementoes with the iconic scaled-up LEGO® Ferrari 512 M model.

 

Weighing a whopping 280kg, and measuring 2700 x 1200 x 700 mm, the life-sized 3-Dimensional version took 164 hours of design and develop, and another 480 hours to build with 78,496 bricks.

During the festival, guests may let their creativity and imagination flow to build, test and race LEGO® vehicles of their dreams.

 

“Every activity we have curated for the festival at LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort came through our passion. We want to create memorable moments for kids and their families as they spend quality time together and learn through play,” said Divisional Director at LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort, C S Lim.

 

“Guests can engage in thematic role-plays, take part in friendly challenges with awesome prizes and celebrate the best moments together with daily live performances we have prepared,” he added.

This event marks one of the largest partnerships between LEGO and LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort, designed for visitors to embrace the love of speed, cars, fun, imagination, and of course, LEGO.

 

Guests can look forward to a fresh and enhanced experience at popular attractions within the theme park.

 

This includes the all-time favourite Driving School, that features a wider variety of vehicles, safe for children to drive and a chance to earn the Best Driver Medal.

 

Have fun testing your own-built model vehicle

Guests who wish to take the challenge up a notch are invited to the LEGO® Mindstorms zone for a series of STEM-based workshops, robotic maze racer, as well as to build and test a vehicle using LEGO® Technic.

“As children return to schools after a prolonged break, this event complements learning through play by enabling an immersive build experience to unleash their imagination and stimulate their creativity.

 

At Build the Thrills, we are generating both exciting and creative experiences such as pit-stop building activities and testing centres, that allow children to embrace expressing themselves while interacting with others,” C S explained.
