The LEGO Group has officially opened the doors to its second UK LEGO® Store in Bristol.
Located in the Cribbs Mall, the new 178sqm LEGO Store is already delighting fans of all ages, as they gathered excitedly yesterday morning to catch the official opening.
Local celebs including Emma Barnes (Married at First Sight), Amy Williams MBE (Olympic Gold Medallist) and Lucy Carter were given an exclusive look inside the store the night before the opening.
Guests were treated with extravagant builds and offers, whilst enjoying LEGO product favourites such as LEGO DREAMZzz, LEGO Friends and LEGO Ninjago, plus LEGO Retail exclusives such as the LEGO Fortnite sets and LEGO Marvel X-Men Mansion.
Open seven days a week from November 7th, 2024, the new LEGO Store features a range of experiences including:
- LEGO Pick a Brick Wall: a great way for customers to select the exact elements that they require for their builds.
- Hands-on Play Opportunities: including free build challenges and events each month.
- Build a Minifigure Tower: visitors can mix and match from a wide selection of bottoms, tops, heads, hair pieces and accessories to customise LEGO minifigures.
- Store Associates: whether customers are picking out a gift, looking for the latest set, or bringing a LEGO fan in for a special treat, the LEGO team can help find the perfect set for everyone.
Shweta Munshi, Vice President Marketing, LEGO Retail at the LEGO Group, said: “We love bringing new LEGO Stores to our fans and local communities. We searched long and hard for the perfect place to open our second Bristol store, but Cribbs Mall was just right! We’re looking forward to bringing our much-loved sets and play experiences to LEGO fans of all ages with another store in the Southwest.”
This new store is the 20th LEGO Store in the UK and brings with it the creation of over 27 new jobs within the local community.
