THE PROBLEM & IMPACT

LEGOLAND® needed a bold attraction for a new LEGO® Galaxy land that elevated an indoor family coaster into a unique, personalised and repeatable experience.

The Challenge

Delivering scalable personalisation across a high-throughput environment while making guest customisations authentically integrated into the ride narrative.

Design Intentions

Put guests inside the narrative, drive repeatability through customisation combinations, and achieve a high guest throughput.

Strategy & Narrative

Frame the experience around an urgent space mission where guests design custom spacecraft via RFID wristbands, carrying their personalised builds through pre-launch AR and physical coaster sequences.

The Outcome

Transformed a traditional roller coaster into a high-capacity interactive experience platform that extends dwell time and increases repeat ride value.

THE SOLUTION
Take a peek by scrolling to the side
Setting the Stage

Broadcasts and alerts welcome guests upon arrival in the land, setting the scene and establishing the onboarding narrative introduction.

Queue Line & Briefing

Dynamic, synchronised digital content builds narrative excitement across the queue, working alongside an animatronic with show-controlled lighting and audio.

Ship Build

Guests design their own spacecraft from 625 combinations, using RFID wristbands to save and track their selections.

AR Moment

Guests view themselves on screen inside their custom spacecraft during a pre-launch interactive sequence.

The Ride

Riders launch into space through a galaxy brought to life by lighting effects, digital content and immersive 3D LEGO space animations.
