As children prepare to break up from school, LEGO House is prepping for more visitors than ever before this summer as guests make the trip to Billund from all over the world .
LEGO House is the destination in Billund, Denmark, that sits right next to the LEGO headquarters and is packed with playful opportunities to engage with the brick. Pre-bookings for summer are up more than 25% when compared to last year – and the team at LEGO House are encouraging fans to prebook now.
According to a press release from the venue, the UK, Germany and the Netherlands send the most international visitors to LEGO House. The biggest booking increases have come from the UK, Poland and Spain. In 2024 so far, people from 95 different countries have visited the Home of the Brick.
LEGO House is recommending that as well as booking tickets in advance, fans book their meals at the popular Mini Chef restaurant – where you can literally build your meal – in advance.
“We are fully prepared for the summer season. With our Play Agents ready, our new interactive activity Build the Change, a new multi-sensory experience in our History Collection and many more exciting features, we assure all guests hours of play and fun,” says LEGO House Managing Director Kathrine Kirk Muff.
“The pre-bookings indicate that we have a busy summer ahead at LEGO House, so I encourage everyone to secure their spot by booking in advance, to ensure nobody is left disappointed. We are securing a world class experience every day by limiting number of tickets to ensure it’s not too crowded.
“Although we’re delighted that we will be busy over summer, we always protect the experience for our guests by limiting capacity of people in the Experience Zones, so that everyone who comes to LEGO House has the very best time.”

Build the Change opened earlier this year and sees guests visit a busy lab, where minifigures are asking for help in solving some of the most pressing challenges affecting the planet. It’s then up to you to build an ingenious invention to present to the scientists, who will add your concept to their collection of brick-built creations.
LEGO House has also received KultureCity certification, demonstrating that the attraction is suitable for guests with additional needs. Sunflower lanyards are available for guests to wear, support kits are available for those with sensory needs, physical equipment is on hand for those who need it and staff have received training to support all visitors.
“Providing great play experiences for all has been an integral part of our mission since opening in 2017,” says Kathrine. “Striving to become an even greater inclusive venue is an ongoing effort but this year we are proud to have reached significant milestones, including obtaining KultureCity certification as the first venue in Denmark. The certification underscores our commitment to ensuring all guests, including guests with special needs, feel welcomed.”
