Legoland’s new Duplo rollercoaster is opening in March – and your kids will love it
LEGOLAND has released the first details of its new Duplo rollercoaster ahead of the ride's opening later this year.
The Windsor theme park first announced the new ride last year, revealing that it's designed for toddlers.
Now, have confirmed that the ride will be making its debut in Duplo Valley on Saturday, March 14.
It will be known as Duplo Dino Coaster, and has been design for kids aged between two and five - although they will have to be at least 0.9m (3ft) to go on the ride.
Your kids will be able to board colourful dinosaur-themed carriages, which will zip around supersized Duplo dinosaur models hidden among palm trees.
According to the park, the models will be 18 times bigger than the ones you can buy.
While the rollercoaster is designed for kids, the park promises it will be a thrill for grown ups too.
The rollercoaster will be just one of several new attractions at Duplo Valley, which has seen a huge expansion.
The outdoor play area known as Brickville will now become Duplo Playtown, and will feature a new rocket play area.
The rocket will feature interactive panels, rope climbs, slide, and even a “3, 2, 1 blast off!” countdown button at the top.
Elsewhere in Duplo Valley, there will be more supersized Duplo models - including a giant whale, dinosaur and tractor - for those who want to get some good family photos in.
