LEGO Discovery Center Boston will be open to the public starting May 25th.

“It’s an honor to attend the opening of the newly renovated LEGO Discovery Center, which will offer exciting opportunities for creative learning, help future leaders develop their creativity and design skills, and bring new jobs and economic growth to Massachusetts. We are also thrilled to soon welcome LEGO’s new North American Headquarters to Massachusetts to drive our economic competitiveness and strengthen our standing as the innovation capital of the world.”

The bricktastic $12 million dollar renovation and reimagining was announced nine months ago by Merlin Entertainments, a global leader in location-based entertainment with brands such as LEGOLAND® Resorts, Madame Tussauds and SEA LIFE Aquariums. Visitors to Boston and locals alike can now experience this first of its kind attraction in the Northeast.

"Over the past few months, we've built LEGO Discovery Center Boston into the ultimate adventure for families to play, explore, create and have fun together. We are thrilled to see excited families as they enjoy all the new experiences!"

Rachel Meissner, General Manager, LEGO Discovery Centre Boston
