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

• 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.
