KUCHING: Legoland Malaysia embarks on yet another milestone with the announcement of the official opening for Legoland Water Park, set to be ready by October.

According to a press release, the Legoland Water Park is scheduled to open on October 21, 2013 and is the next phase in the Legoland Malaysia Resort plans that will consist of the Theme Park, Water Park and Hotel.

A Legoland Hotel will open early next year.

The interactive and fully LEGO themed Water Park will offer more than 20 unique slides, and over 70 LEGO models among its many attractions.

Some of the highlights include the popular Build-A-Raft River and Joker Soaker.

The first is a unique concept where children can customise their own raft with soft LEGO bricks before floating down a lazy river.

The latter is a fun interactive platform in the wade pool where children can play with water cannons as a Lego jester model ‘tells’ jokes while 350 gallons of water pour down upon them.

This will be the largest Legoland Water Park when opened and it will also be the first to have a second gate, which means it can be enjoyed separately or in combination with the Theme Park.

Siegfried Boerst, general manager of Legoland Malaysia Resort said that the addition would mean families want to make more visits and stay longer.

“The Water Park will add a whole new dimension to the Legoland Malaysia experience. In total, Legoland Malaysia Resort will have more than 70 rides, slides, shows and attractions. This is a unique holiday destination for the entire family to enjoy. It will offer adventure, education and fun for action-packed day trips or longer breaks,” Boerst explained.

Starting early August 2013, limited numbers of Premium Annual Pass will go on sale. The Pass is valid for both the new Water Park and the Theme Park and will cost RM395. It can be used for 12 months at any time during normal operating hours including weekends, public and school holidays.

Current Annual Pass holders can also upgrade their Pass to the Premium Annual Pass and information will be updated on the website soon. Visitors will be able to buy Combo Day Tickets in advance online that will allow them entry into both parks.

The much awaited Legoland Water Park will also feature two restaurants, private cabanas for rent and a retail store on-site.
