Myself, my partner and our 3 year old son visited here yesterday as part of a shopping day out. We have been before but my son has become more interested in Lego so he was much more excited. It was a week day so a lot quieter. No queuing at all. And we moved very fast into the main bit.... More

After reading reviews for the centre we were a bit unsure about visiting but got some discouted tickets so thought we would give it a try. Were not not disappointed manage to spend about 3 hours here would not like to pay full price, but still plenty to do for a one off visit. Kept our 7 and 3 year... More

We went as a family of four with two children aged 8 and 5 on Saturday 11th May. We arrived at about 1pm and went pretty much straight in without having to queue. My overall feeling is that this is a missed opportunity. As other reviewers have commented it does indeed feel like a glorified soft play centre with three... More

My son and his friends love Lego, so for his birthday I took 8 of them along to the discovery centre. I was pretty poor and that's being fair. It just didn't live up to my expectations at all. It was outdated, the 4D cinema was no better than my 3D tv at home. It was absolutely packed, rammed with... More

Had a fantastic day! Well worth booking online before hand and it cut queuing time right down. If you like lego, this is a great place to go. Very interactive for the kids and the 3d experience is worth a bit of a wait!

I took my three year old son and a visiting family with two young boys to this Legoland as O2 had a promotion on Priority Moments. Its a mini version and limited options but worthwhile. The rides are fun for children and enjoyed by the adults. Miniland is impressive and a treat. 4D cinema thrills. Overall a fun filled day... More

My husband and I have just visited Lego land with our six year old son. He is a huge Lego fan and was not disappointed. There was plenty to keep him busy for a few hours and it was definitely worth the visit. The 4-D cinema was brilliant and overall it was great. I think for older children, 9yrs and... More

Went to Legoland with my 3 year old Grandson who is lively and full of fun and I was hoping to see something that would have the Wow factor. Sadly, we paid £28 for a soft play area that I could have visited near home for £4, a few lego set pieces, some very amateurish displays and not much else.Totall... More

Me and my son have been coming to lego at Manchester for over three years now as we live locally, a years membership is great value for money and you can then renew that for just £20. There are three main rides all aimed at younger children and a 4D cinema, 'you may get wet'. A huge climbing frame for... More
