LEGOLAND

LEGOLAND Malaysia has made public the pricing structure for tickets and annual passes to its theme park in Nusajaya, Johor, which is on schedule to open by end-2012.

Gate prices will be RM140 (US$47) for an adult and RM110 for a child, while an annual pass – offering unlimited access for a calendar year – will cost RM275 for an adult and RM210 for a child. Special pricing will be offered to groups and schools, while Malaysian nationals will receive a RM30 rebate on gate prices.

An additional feature is the pre-opening annual pass available at the discounted price of RM195 for an adult and RM 110 for a child. Valid from the park’s opening date right through to 2013, the discounted passes will go on sale within the next dew days for a limited period.

Legoland Malaysia general manager Siegfried Boerst said the discounted passes were being launched as a result of the high volume of enquiries over the past few months. He added: “Travel experts will be entitled to a commission for the day ticket. But if there is demand from them for the annual pass, we will look at it.”

With construction having passed the 40 per cent mark, Legoland Malaysia will begin to aggressively market the park globally in the new year.

“We will participate in international travel trade shows and conduct road shows in Singapore, East Asia, the Middle East and India,” said Boerst.

With a development cost of RM720 million, Legoland Malaysia will offer seven themed areas – The Beginning, Lego City, Miniland, Land of Adventure, Imagination, Lego Kingdom and Lego Technic (a roller coaster ride).

One million visitors are targeted in the park’s first year of operations.

Well folks, what are you waiting for.....??
