TAKE YOUR CHILDREN TO A LAND FAR, FAR AWAY… WITHOUT LEAVING TORONTO

LEGOLAND® Discovery Centre Toronto Opens New Attraction – Ninjago City Adventure

TORONTO, Ont. (June, 2017) - Get ready to put your ninja skills to the ultimate test in the all-new LEGO® Ninjago City Adventure, which opened June 2 at LEGOLAND® Discovery Centre Toronto. The over $750,000, 2,300-square-foot interactive play area is the Centre’s 5th interactive experience added since opening four years ago.

Modeled after the Temple of Airjitzu, the two-story play structure puts guests’ physical skills to the test as they fight to save Ninjago City. Together, adults and children will test their balance, agility, strength and endurance to become a Spinjitzu Master, all while experiencing more than 20 interactive features.
Guests of ALL ages can join Sensei Wu and practice ninja moves in the Dojo training room by testing hand-eye coordination on the color crush reflex reaction game. Moving on to the temple, ninjas-in-training engage in several obstacle course challenges inspired by their favorite Ninjago characters Kai, Jay, Cole, Lloyd, Zane and Nya.

There are tons of interactive activities including navigating a vortex spinning barrel, mastering the art of Spinjitzu on the spiral slide of lights, harnessing the power of the water on wave decks, crawling through hover rings and lightning buzzer bars, taking on a crisscross maze and vertical rope climb, testing LEGO® building skills and more.

Some Ninjago City Stats:

·         It’s taken approximately 7,000 hours to build Ninjago City Adventure
·         More than 110,000 LEGO® bricks were used to create the three showcase models: Sensei Wu, Jay and Nya
·         The three Ninjago models were built in Kladno, in the Czech Republic, by LEGO Production s.r.o. Built by LEGO® model builders
·         There are over 20 interactives for kids, including a Ninjago model build table, reaction game, endless pit, spinning barrel, Pogo power and more
·         There is a special Toddler Area that features a Spin Cup (spin like a Spinjitzu Master), Toddler Climber (develop your perceptions and quick Ninja reflexes) and Drum Panel (play with elemental sounds and power)
·         Ninjago City Adventure was constructed by Soft Play from North Carolina, one of the largest manufacturers in the world
