Galloping into the Year of the Horse with LEGOLAND® Malaysia Resort

A brick-built “Garden of Prosperity” brings Lunar New Year traditions to life with festive play, cultural flair and family fun .

ISKANDAR PUTERI, 13 January 2025 – This Lunar New Year, LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort invites families to step into a world where tradition meets imagination, as it welcomes the Year of the Horse with a month-long, brick-built Lunar New Year Celebration, running from 22 January to 22 February 2026.

Inspired by the theme “Garden of Prosperity”, the Resort has been transformed into a vibrant festive playground filled with glowing red lanterns, blooming cherry blossoms and immersive LEGO® creations. At the heart of the celebration stands a striking 2.4-metre LEGO® Horse centerpiece – a powerful symbol of strength, renewal and good fortune. 

Inspired by the LEGO 40779 Year of the Horse Chinese Zodiac Limited Edition set, the majestic Horse carries an auspicious scroll of blessings for the year ahead, creating a must-see photo moment for families and LEGO fans alike. 

 

Build Your Luck, Brick by Brick

At the heart of the celebration is an interactive adventure that invites guests to build, play and prosper together. Families and young builders can pick up an activity card and trot around the park as they complete creative challenges to unlock the magic of the “Garden of Prosperity” – one brick at a time.

Hands-on festive activities include:

●   Build-A-Horse, where guests build their own symbol of energy, courage and good fortune

●  LEGO Orange Tree Making, stack prosperity and happiness onto every branch as you build and take home this special creation.

● LEGO Chinese Calligraphy Mural, where culture meets creativity through brick-built artistry

●   Minifigure Trading, the classic LEGOLAND favorite loved by fans

●  LEGO Horse Post & Win, where snapping a photo with the centerpiece could rein in weekly prizes
