this is a strange and perhaps concerning development on this one.

Atlantis had a substantial refurbishment for the 2020 season, which involved partial rebuilt and work to the exterior of the building.

The thing I would like to know is what has happened and why is the ride needing more substantial work not even four years later, let alone a whole season closed? It does make you wonder if the whole building is suffering from a major structural problem or the ride system just needs a major refresh.

Feels a major blow for the park all things considered as that’s two substantial attractions down for the 24 season. Even if they opening new high’ish capacity coasters and one of those shuttered rides spent much of its time closed.

The ride was barely touched for the 2020 refurb - the front of the building was reclad as you say, and the theme updated, but the ride itself - no change more or less.

That's a shame. It is quite a good ride.

Am I right in thinking the rapids are just sat there now and haven't been demolished yet.

There has perhaps never been a better monument to the dangers of the hubris of man.

I'm worried it'll create an arms race were each Legoland builds bigger and bigger mini figures until one is so big it destroys the planet.

It's alright, another park would have built one big enough to be a new planet at that point.

Is there a way to see which film is showing at which times at the 4D cinema?

Yes on the app, tap the map, then select entertainment and then the three lines top left.

It lists the shows and you can go in each one to see the times and set a reminder if you want.

It's all detailed in the app I believe!

Brilliant, thank you so much.

Seems like they're not showing the Mythica one anymore, never managed to catch it last year

The world's tallest Lego minifugure!

There had to be a record added to it.

I would expect Merlin to even do "World First Merlin coaster without a Worlds First element."

To be fair, they've already claimed the "Worlds First Lego-themed Dueling Rollercoaster"

Rubbish photos as I ran past holding my son but best I could do. Looked like they were busy.

Loving the theming on this!

New ride opens on the 29th! That was sudden.



Edit: It's on the website ride list now too with an interesting height restriction of 1.05m
