Lego Ferrari Build And Race Attraction Opens At Legoland California

CARLSBAD, CA — Start your engines! LEGO Ferrari Build and Race, the newest attraction at LEGOLAND California Resort, is now open.

The new attraction at the Carlsbad theme park puts visitors in the driver's seat with cutting-edge digital technology that isn't available at any other LEGOLAND theme park in the world.

"Kicking off what is anticipated to be one of the biggest vacation seasons to date, LEGOLAND California is thrilled to bring this first-of-its-kind attraction to Carlsbad, California," said Kurt Stocks, president of LEGOLAND California Resort. "On the heels of Miami's Grand Prix, we know what a thrill the Formula 1 races can be, and we're excited to give our guests a taste of that experience here at the park."

LEGO Ferrari Build and Race features three interactive zones, including a garage, build and test area and digital racetrack, where visitors can build, test, digitally scan and virtually race their own LEGO Ferrari against other cars.

The new area also has a DUPLO build zone where younger LEGO enthusiasts can design their creations with bigger bricks. A LEGO pit crewmember will also be on hand to share Ferrari fun facts, race history, and showcase themed LEGO race gear and awards.

The centerpiece of the new attraction is a life-size LEGO Ferrari F40 model.

The LEGO model took a team of designers and builders more than 3,800 hours and more than 350,000 LEGO elements to create, according to theme park officials. Resembling an actual F40 Ferrari, the model is 14 feet long, more than 6 feet wide and 4 feet tall. It weighs more than 3,000 pounds. LEGOLAND visitors can sit in the full-scale Ferrari F40 model and take pictures.
