If you thought LEGO was just about snapping bricks together in your living room, think again. LEGOLAND Dubai has unveiled its latest event – Build the Thrill that’s all about putting the pedal to the plastic. Running from 5 April to 31 May 2025, this Formula 1®-inspired celebration mixes racetrack vibes with creative chaos, and the result? A pure family-fuelled adventure.
Zoom Zoom! LEGOLAND Dubai Just Turned Into A Race Track For Kids

Set in the heart of Dubai Parks and Resorts, this adrenaline-charged event invites kids (and enthusiastic grown-ups) to swap their sandals for racing shoes and dive headfirst into the world of speed, builds, and podium dreams.
It all begins at the LEGOLAND gates. Young racers get their official Pit Pass, spin a wheel, and join either Team Red or Team Blue. From that point on, it’s game face on.
Pit Pass, Build, Zoom, Repeat!

Head over to LEGO® City, where the Driver’s Academy turns tiny hands into master engineers. Kids build race cars, race them, crash them, and then rebuild them faster, stronger, and slicker. Every corner hums with creativity and the occasional “Mum! I need more wheels!”
Then, there’s the Pit Party — a full-blown showdown where the two teams race, cheer, and boogie to energetic beats. This isn’t just a race. It’s a party at 60km/hr (well, sort of).
Victory, Milkshakes And Model Sets

Winners (and honestly, everyone’s a winner here) get to strut onto the Grand Podium for Insta-perfect moments – LEGO helmets, trophies, props, and all. Over at MINILAND, there’s a wild scavenger hunt and jaw-dropping LEGO race car displays.
Fuel up with Track Snacks because no champion races on an empty stomach. Grab a “Tyre Doughnut” or sip a “Circuit Shake” – they’re delicious, trust us.
Want to take the magic home? The Formula 1® LEGO® sets might be the thing for you. You can bag exclusive Technic™ and Speed Champions models – and yes, they’re as cool as they sound. Buy two for AED 169 or all ten for AED 839.
Stay The Night, Keep The Thrill Going

Too much fun for one day? LEGOLAND Hotel has you covered. Just a stone’s throw away (or 130 baby steps if you’re counting), the hotel continues the race-themed buzz. Kids can boogie at the nightly Grand Prix after-party or show off their building skills at the Build the Thrill Creative Workshop led by Master Model Builders.
Even dinner’s part of the fun with Grand Prix-inspired meals like the ones you had at the park.
