Amid a whirl of emotions and a flurry of confetti, a unique celebration took place at LEGOLAND® Germany on Austria's recent National Day. Two young visitors, 9-year-old Sophia and 7-year-old Jakob from Innsbruck, made history as they stepped in as the 30-millionth visitors of the amusement resort.
An Unexpected Welcome at the Park Entrance
The family from Innsbruck had a simple expectation: a relaxing day at LEGOLAND, enjoying the joys of the Monster-Party for Halloween. Yet, destiny had more in store for them. Manuela Stone, the CEO of the LEGOLAND® Germany Resort, along with the park's mascot, Olli the Dragon, and a group of enthusiastic employees, prepared a reception for the kids that they'll remember forever.
Expressing her surprise, Christina, the children's mother, stated: "We never expected such a reception. This will surely remain a lifetime highlight. Thank you, LEGOLAND!"
30 Seconds to Remember: The Shop Run
Following the formal greeting, the family was invited to a special event: the Shop Run in the LEGOLAND City Shop. Here, aligning with their 30-millionth guest status, Sophia and Jakob had 30 seconds to load up on as many LEGO sets as they could carry. From Hogwarts™ Castles to NINJAGO® sets, no shelf was left untouched.
The young Jakob's eyes sparkled as he showcased his haul: "This castle is amazing!" And his mother added, "This truly feels like a dream."
A Milestone for LEGOLAND
Such a special event underscores how LEGOLAND® Germany has been enchanting its visitors since its inauguration in May 2002. The CEO, Manuela Stone, shared her sentiments: "Celebrating such a milestone and witnessing so many joyous moments is a privilege. It's this kind of enthusiasm that drives us to constantly deliver our best to our guests."
