1,000s Disregard Social Distancing Guidelines to Witness a Panda at Tsim Sha Tsui Waterfront

[December 16, 2020, HONG KONG] LEGOLAND® Discovery Centre Hong Kong has unveiled an enormous 300KG LEGO® panda model, to celebrate the opening of the attraction on January 25th, 2021. The brightly coloured LEGO® panda made a brief appearance in Tsim Sha Tsui, in front of an audience of over 1,000 locally built LEGO® mini-figures that were put in to position by, King Leung, the venue’s recently appointed Master Model Builder.

The LEGO® panda art piece is almost 2 metres tall, was created out of tens of thousands LEGO® bricks, and took 440 hours to build. It is the first of its kind in the world and was designed and built in the Czech Republic by Jan Boudník to entertain and inspire people to create wonderful LEGO® models of their own.

The panda is expected to move to its permanent near Salisbury Garden, where it will sit alongside the attraction’s interactive zones, rides and other creative builds.

“I think we can all agree that 2020 has been a tough and challenging year,” said Ben Sweet, New Openings Director - Asia Pacific, Merlin Entertainments. “Pandas traditionally symbolise ‘peace’ and ‘fortune’ and we hope that this LEGO® panda will bring both to people in Hong Kong during this difficult time.”

LEGO® panda underwent a 14-day period of “self-quarantine” upon arrival in Hong Kong
