Giant LEGO Christmas tree due on display at LEGOLAND Windsor later this month

A giant LEGO Christmas tree will be part of the festive celebrations when the huge build goes on display at LEGOLAND Windsor later this month.

Visitors to the park will be able to get into the Christmas spirit when the massive tree is fully unveiled on November 27. The construction at the Windsor attraction is made of 364,481 LEGO and Duplo bricks and stands nearly 33ft tall.

In total the LEGO Christmas tree took 2,909 hours to put together and features baubles, candy canes and candles. On top of the tree is a large LEGO star which weighs 80kg and is itself made of 5,251 LEGO bricks.

“We’re really excited for what is set to be one of LEGOLAND Windsor’s biggest Christmas celebrations yet,” said the resort’s chief model maker, Paula Laughton, “as our guests and their families plan to make up for lost time and enjoy some magical memory-making this winter, which they couldn’t do because of restrictions last year.”
