On a remarkable Sunday morning in Carlsbad, over a thousand dino enthusiasts gathered at Legoland California, setting a new Guinness World Record for the largest dinosaur costume party. This historic event not only broke the previous record but also served as a platform to announce the grand opening of Dino Valley, Legoland's latest attraction, set to welcome visitors from March 22.
Record-Breaking Revelry
The event witnessed a staggering 1,273 participants donning dinosaur costumes, dancing their way into history. This achievement surpassed the former record holders, highlighting a significant milestone in the theme park's quest for uniqueness and entertainment. The record-breaking event was led by the iconic LEGO T-Rex guy and the Legoland brass band, introducing Paleontologist Girl, a new character, to the attendees for the first time.
Dino Valley: A Prehistoric Paradise
Located near the park's entrance, Dino Valley is poised to be a haven for dinosaur aficionados of all ages. The area will feature three new rides, an interactive build-and-play zone, and a plethora of prehistoric fun, marking a significant expansion in Legoland California's offerings. This new themed land is part of the park's extensive 25th-anniversary celebrations, which also include discounted tickets for kids and the much-anticipated debut of North America's first LEGO World Parade in the summer.
More Than Just Dinosaurs
Aside from Dino Valley, Legoland California is gearing up for a fun-filled summer with the introduction of the LEGO World Parade. Featuring six floats inspired by beloved LEGO themes and entertainers in dazzling costumes, the parade promises to be a spectacular display of creativity and joy. Moreover, the Legoland California Water Park and the LEGO CHIMA Water Park are set to open their doors to families looking for aquatic adventures starting March 16 and June 15, respectively.
Legoland California's recent world record and the upcoming opening of Dino Valley underscore the theme park's commitment to providing unique and memorable experiences. As it continues to expand and innovate, visitors can look forward to more exciting announcements and attractions in the future, further cementing its status as a premier destination for families and LEGO enthusiasts alike.
