Great fun, kids loved it and easily spent a few hours there. That it's at the Trafford centre makes it easy to find and free parking. Scheduled booking time makes entry easy too

We loved it here! Spent just over 3,5 hours here and it was the perfect amount of time to really explore the whole space and participate in all the fun activities! Everyone here is so friendly and welcoming and I particularly loved that there were plenty of hand sanitizer “stations” scattered all around the space! Definitely worth a visit!

Such a funtastic wee afternoon out! This was a stop on our road trip down to Alton Towers. We pre-booked our tickets for everything before arrival. There was no queue when we arrived. The staff member was so lovely explaining about the Ride Pass for my son, which made it even more stress free for us! Our kids were so excited getting their lanyards, loved the VR experience and the 4D cinema was amazing. So entertaining, you do get a bit wet!

​We visited Legoland Discovery Centre and left with such lovely memories. Our whole family loved the experience, especially the 4D Movie—it was a huge hit with our 3-year-old! ​The Miniland was absolutely awesome; honestly, I think the adults appreciated the incredible detail even more than the kids did. We also spent ages at the build-and-race station. We managed to build a car so sturdy it survived multiple races without breaking—definitely deserved its spot in the Hall of Fame! 🏎️🏆 ​A note on the cafe: We stopped for coffee and kids' meals. They offer an option to upgrade the meal box to a Lego-themed one, but we found it very pricey at £8 extra per child. Paying £16 extra for two plastic boxes felt like a bit much, so keep that in mind if you're on a budget! ​We finished the day with a trip to the shop (essential for Lego lovers!) and headed out to explore the surrounding area. The location is perfect for a full day out. Overall, a great experience!

This Lego discovery centre is very easy to get to and there is FREE parking very close by. You don’t need to have priority parking at the Trafford centre. This place is very accessible so everyone can enjoy there day out and if your a Merlin pass holder you can visit for free. Just make sure you have pre booked so there is no disappointment when you arrive. There is lots for the whole family to see and do and play with and the rides inside are great. We didn’t use the cafe inside as we wasn’t there for a long time. There are toilets inside and seems to be plenty of space. If you stretch it out you could probably spend a good 4 hours here but we seen everything and had a play on everything in about 3 hours. The laser train ride was fantastic and you can fit 5 people on a train. Everyone gets their own gun so everyone can join the fun. The only thing we thought we was forced into was having our picture taken at the start of the attraction. Some people didn’t want there’s taking and the person taking there picture made them feel uncomfortable. Apart from that it’s a great day out and worth the trip.
