Santa's Hut

Sadly, it seems that Legoland no longer plan to open the park at Christmas. They now just open the big shop and display a few models. However in the past, most of the park was open. Here's a short history.

Over Christmas 1999, for the first time the park re-opened for Christmas. The additional attractions / changes were :-

The Circus was transformed into Santa's Workshop
The Imagination theatre showed a Peter Pan pantomime
The I-Spy Express became the Snowball Express.
The 12 days of Christmas (in Lego) was displayed at various points in the park.
Miniland was illuminated

At Christmas 2002, the additional attractions / changes were :-

Santa visited the My Town Harbour.
There was also a dancing Christmas Pudding show !
There was a snow machine by the My Town Town Hall (actually the snow was made of tiny bubbles.)
Special Christmas display (made from Lego - of course)

Playing Scrabble in the snow
The following rides were NOT running
- Pirate Falls
- Wave Surfer
- X-Treme Team Challenge

At Christmas 2003, the main park was not open. However they did have

A Warehouse sale in a large tent just outside the entrance - good bargains
A Sale in the main shop - disappointing stock levels
The 12 days of Christmas (in Lego) on display
The 'Power Builder' ride - looked too violent to me.

In Christmas 2004, again the main park was not open. They didn't even have a ride of any kind, and just the Warehouse Sale, Big Shop, Kids Wear and Pick-a-brick were open.
