THE
MAGICAL FOREST An enchanting new walk-through attraction known as The Magical Forest is set to capture children’s hearts and imaginations when it opens to guests during May. The LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort revealed a sneak peek of its new immersive experience which marks a new realm in the story of its multi-million pounds land, LEGO® MYTHICA: World of Mythical Creatures to Wokingham Local. First look images taken from deep inside The Magical Forest transport guests to a mysterious woodland in the heart of LEGO MYTHICA which features a myriad of new weird and wonderful 10
creature models and incredible habitats built by the Resort’s expert Model Makers using over 80,000 LEGO® bricks. Model Maker Will Saunders (28) was on hand to apply the finishing touches adding the final LEGO Bricks to the vibrant LEGO Models and sprucing them up ahead of their unveiling to the public. The Project Manager for The Magical Forest James Armitage (37) tested the lights and effects for the immersive light tunnel at the entrance to the new attraction. The swirling vortex of dazzling lights offers a glimpse into how guests will start their adventure in this parallel universe, where LEGO creatures come to life using awesome Augmented Reality (AR) with surprises in store around every corner. Fan-favourite, Bits & Bobs and the friendly baby Alicorn, will surprise guests as at the enchanted waterfall before they head deep in the heart of The Magical Forest. Guests can also expect to unearth secret LEGO habitats hidden beneath the undergrowth and foliage, but just beware for the giant Venus Fly Trap which can be a little snappy - especially when they first meet intrepid young explorers.
