vahkimetru Posted January 25, 2006 Merlin Entertainment, the new owners of LegoLand are looking for another LegoLand! What do you think? I'm from the US, but for all you from Europe, what do you think? I personally hope to see more rides from Lego Themes, and a ferris wheel shaped like a Technic gear.

TLG did have plans to set up a theme park in Belgium a few years back, but i'll assume it's somewhere in America 3) are they going to buy a park or start from scratch?

Wisconsin or Minisota would be nice too. I think it's probably going to be between the midwest and east cost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Biomech Posted January 29, 2006 It's always the US, no offense, but what about the rest of the world? *sing* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jipay Posted January 29, 2006 I think that's just because the US has a more developped "theme parc culture" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Biomech Posted January 29, 2006 I think that's just because the US has a more developped "theme parc culture" That's terrible reasoning. Canada, where I live, has many many tourist attractions... if a LEGOland was built in Toronto or Niagara Falls... it would be very successful. There are many other countries like this.

vahkimetru Posted January 29, 2006 Maybe, it could be on the border of Canada because than US tourists would need to show pass ports at some part of the park if it was half and half. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blueandwhite Posted January 30, 2006 I think that's just because the US has a more developped "theme parc culture" That's terrible reasoning. Canada, where I live, has many many tourist attractions... if a LEGOland was built in Toronto or Niagara Falls... it would be very successful. There are many other countries like this. Well, as a fellow Canadian, I have to disagree. Themeparks are far better suited to warmer climates. Heck, I live 20 minutes from Canada's Wonderland (a themepark). The fact is, due to weather, it only brings in business for six months in any given year. Also, other than Ontario, and Quebec, Canada's population density is extremely low. We simply don't have the market for something like this. It would be more suited to a Southern US State. As for Europe, they already have two LEGOLAND parks. Don't forget, Europe is far smaller than North America. Its not unreasonable for a fellow in England to make the trip to Germany or vice versa. The same can't be said in North America. To drive from the Northern East Coast to California would take over 40 hours! Honestly, a second US LEGOLAND makes sense. Later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
