The bigger and better DUPLO Valley opens at LEGOLAND Windsor

LEGOLAND Windsor’s bigger and better DUPLO Valley is now open, following a makeover and the launch of the world’s first DUPLO Dino Coaster.

The new DUPLO Dino Coaster is the perfect first roller coaster for little ones. Inspired by a DUPLO Dinosaur, budding explorers will hop aboard a brightly coloured dinosaur carriage, before soaring past supersized DUPLO brick dinosaur models, 18 times bigger than if you were to build them at home!

Explorers of all ages (grown-ups too!) can embark on a voyage to discover everything the bigger and better DUPLO Valley has to offer. Children’s imaginations will be captured from start to finish, especially when they come face to face with 4 new giant DUPLO characters, including a 3-metre-tall dinosaur! The new DUPLO models took a team of twelve expert designers, more than two and a half months to create.

DUPLO Valley has new and updated attractions that will keep little ones entertained for hours, including the transformation of the popular outdoor play area Brickville into DUPLO Playtown, which now has a new rocket play structure. Standing at more than 5 metres tall, aspiring astronauts can enjoy the interactive play panels, slides and more. Families can also take to the skies at the new look DUPLO Valley Airport with three new coloured helicopters for little pilots to choose from.

Last month, LEGOLAND Windsor also announced the arrival of DUPLO Valley’s new official character, Dexter the Dog! Dexter will be on hand (or paw) to welcome guests as they explore the wonders of the pre-schooler's paradise.

At the popular DUPLO Puppet Theatre, there’s a brand-new show for families to watch throughout the day. The Frog Prince, tells the tale of Princess Money-Plenty who loses her golden ball in the depths of a murky pond; ruled by an Evil Toad, before she’s saved by the heroics of the theme parks very own secret agent - James Pond. The Frog Prince joins the puppet show line up alongside the much-loved Goldilocks and the Three Bears, retold with a modern and comedic LEGOLAND twist.

DUPLO Valley is also home to the park’s awesome outdoor water play areas; Splash Safari, Drench Towers and Raft Racers (reopening in the warmer months), alongside a host of family rides designed firmly with little ones in mind. From the gentle riverboat Fairy Tale Brook ride – where fairy tales from The Three Little Pigs and Sleeping Beauty come to life in over 4 million LEGO bricks, to the DUPLO Express train ride.

Plus, for 2020 the much-loved Atlantis Submarine Voyage ride has a new look and name; LEGO City Deep Sea Adventure. A new pre-show invites young explorers to join the mission to discover a lost underwater city and hidden treasure, amongst real life sea creatures! Before venturing aboard, recruits will need to keep their eyes peeled for the LEGO sea turtles made up of 16,384 LEGO bricks, which took Model Makers a staggering 120 hours to build. Families can spot new supersized Minifigures from deep sea divers, to a Sea Captain. Watch out for the Diver, Europe’s first ever talking Minifigure, who comes bursting to life as guests pass by!
