LEGOLAND New York Grand Opening Delayed Full Year Due To Coronavirus
The opening of LEGOLAND New York Resort will be delayed until 2021 due to COVID-19 outbreak. Merlin Entertainment, the resort’s owners, said the a $350 million theme park and 250-room Legoland Hotel was expected to debut on July 4, 2020.
Officials said delaying the opening was consistent with the closure of venues and postponement of events worldwide.
Upper management reiterated their stance, by stating they highly valued the health, safety, and security of its team, the partners they work with, and the communities they serve.
Resort officials still plan to hire more than 1,000 employees to staff the theme park and hotel, and all hourly employees who received an offer to work for the 2020 season will be invited to join the team in 2021.
All previously purchased annual passes or single-day tickets will be honored when the resort opens in 2021.
Those who had already booked trips through Legoland Vacations will be provided the opportunity to be the first to visit when the park opens in 2021.
Now set to open in 2021, the park is slated to have 50 rides, shows, and attractions across seven themed “lands” on 150 acres.
