Shanghai Introduces Largest Legoland globally, China's First

In a grand celebration, the much-anticipated Legoland Shanghai Resort officially opened its gates on the 5th of July, 2025. This family-friendly destination, located in Fengjing Town, Jinshan District, Shanghai, is set to inject new vitality into the local tourism market and attract a multitude of domestic and international tourists.

Spanning an expansive 318,000 square meters, the resort offers a theme park, a hotel, and is divided into eight 'lands', each offering a unique and immersive experience. The resort houses thousands of LEGO models built with over 85 million LEGO bricks, making it a haven for Lego fans and children aged 2-12 and their families.

## Unique Attractions

One of the standout attractions is the Lego Coaster, a new suspended, inverted family coaster that is one of the first of its kind in a Legoland park. It centers around a giant Minifigure and offers a thrilling ride experience, while providing breathtaking views of the park.

Another exciting attraction yet to open is Journey to Flower Fruit Mountain, a shoot-the-chute ride that combines dark ride and boat ride elements, centered around the Monkie Kid story.

Visitors can also embark on the Legoland Boat Tour, an exclusive ride that allows them to explore the park from a boat's perspective, passing through different themed lands like Lego Friends, Bricktopia, and Monkie Kid.

Legoland Shanghai also boasts Lego Ninjago World, a themed land offering immersive experiences based on the popular Lego Ninjago series.

A highlight not to be missed is Miniland, featuring a miniature representation of Shanghai's cityscape, showcasing iconic landmarks in Lego form.

## Other Experiences

The resort offers a variety of additional experiences designed to engage both younger and older generations. The Roof Garden, located on top of the LEGO BIG Shop, offers a unique view but is only accessible from the Legoland Hotel.

Classic Chinese stories are incorporated into the resort to broaden its appeal across different age groups, enhancing the cultural relevance and engagement for visitors.

The world's largest Legoland Hotel provides themed accommodations that complement the park experience, while the world's first Legoland-themed aircraft, in partnership with Juneyao Air, adds to the resort's overall brand experience.

The Shanghai Legoland resort, the biggest among the 11 current Legoland parks worldwide, is a day or weekend destination that promises a world of fun and creativity. During the first opening week (5 to 13 July), visitors can enjoy a special 'Grand Opening Week' program, featuring limited time mini-figure swaps, exclusive merchandise, special discounts, and LEGO treats.

The Lego Plaza comes to life with daily shows and meet-and-greet moments during the opening week. Mr. Niels B. Christiansen, President & Chief Executive Officer of the LEGO Group, stated that Legoland Shanghai will be an integral part of the LEGO ecosystem in China and a great addition to their retail network.

Fiona Eastwood, Chief Executive Officer of Merlin Entertainments, expressed that the resort blends global and local elements, making it a unique and engaging destination for all. Zhuang Jian, Chairman of Shanghai New Jinshan Investment Share Holding Group Co., Ltd., stated that the park will be a new cultural landmark for family interaction and bring unique joy to all LEGO fans in China and beyond.

The opening of Legoland Shanghai coincides with the 75th anniversary marking the diplomatic relations between China and Denmark, further emphasising the cultural significance of this exciting new addition to Shanghai's tourism landscape.
