LEGO® Friends fans are in for a treat at the LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort this May half term as a totally new area brings to life the vibrancy and fun of Heartlake City with exciting new attractions, an action packed live show AND an all new exciting equestrian themed ride, Mia's Riding Adventure.  And those who want a double whammy dose of LEGO Friends can check into one of the recently opened premium themed rooms at the LEGOLAND Windsor Resort Hotel.

The all-new Heartlake City themed area opens on 23 May when guests can step into the colourful world of the LEGO Friends. The unmistakeable exterior of the Heartlake Mall gives a stunning harbour-side backdrop for the exciting new live show 'Friends to the Rescue!' featuring Mia, Andrea, Stephanie, Emma and Olivia. Fans can join the girls on an action packed adventure full of surprises and sing and dance along to their favourite LEGO Friends songs. Then guests can head over to the Heartlake City Express for a gentle train journey through the LEGO countryside, before taking a more energetic equestrian turn on Mia's Riding Adventure. This horseback adventure spins riders through the air, travelling backwards and forwards on a circular spinning 'race track'. Plus at Olivia's House little LEGO builders can help build a home for one of Olivia's pets and Emma's Ice Cream Parlour will be dishing up some delicious desserts.

There's also an all-new feel to the LEGO City area this year with re-vamped, bigger and better LEGO City Driving School and Coastguard HQ. Not forgetting Pirate Shores featuring Castaway Camp, the splash-tastic DUPLO® Valley, Atlantis Submarine Voyage, the Dragon Rollercoaster (or the Dragon's Apprentice for littler ones), the legendary Miniland and LEGO Star Wars™ Miniland Model Display.

Over at the LEGOLAND Windsor Resort Hotel guests can extend a visit to a short break over May half term in one of the ten NEW LEGO Friends themed rooms or check out a Kingdom, Pirate or Adventure themed room – all jam packed with special twists and flourishes.

With over 55 family friendly rides and attractions to discover in 150 acres of beautiful parkland 'awesome awaits' at the LEGOLAND Windsor Resort.  Check www.legoland.co.uk for full details.
