As the 2015 Glastonbury Festival takes place this weekend, visitors to the LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort will be able to spot a brand NEW miniature LEGO® version in the world-famous Miniland attraction - complete with headline mash-up of tiny LEGO versions of Kanye West, Florence Welch and Roger Daltrey on an amazing 5,400 brick recreation of the famous Pyramid Stage.

Plus, a festival isn't a festival without all the essentials – there are plenty of portaloos, tents and festival-goers mud sliding in REAL Glastonbury Festival mud delivered direct to the attraction from Worthy Farm. AND spot Kim Kardashian hanging out with Foo Fighter Dave Grohl resting his injured leg in the backstage VIP area. The scene took the Resort's talented model making team 720 hours to build, using 9,872 bricks.

“The Glastonbury Festival has become such a British institution, it truly deserves a place in Miniland,” commented LEGOLAND Windsor Resort PR Manager, Lauren Moss. “The model makers have had a huge amount of fun creating the scene and the Festival team have been really helpful giving us stage dimensions and sending a special consignment of Glastonbury 'mud' fresh from the farm. We think guests are going to love the scene which will remain a permanent feature.”
