Legoland has announced plans for an expansion of the popular amusement park in Billund in eastern Jutland. The new section is currently under construction and due to open next March.

A 85 million kroner investment is being used to build a new interactive universe, NINJAGO.

Some 727,000 Lego bricks will be used on building the 5,100 sqm attraction, which is based on the popular cartoon series Lego Ninjago.

“Ninjago is a universe known to children around the world. The story is about friendship, good versus evil and a lot of active play,” explained Christian Woller, the head of Legoland.

Active play, testing all senses
The main attraction is the Ninjago The Ride, a 4D universe in which you are challenged to master the four elements.

The attraction also features LEGO building stations, games to test reflexes and balance, Asian cuisine and a new shopping venue.
