The Toronto Zoo will host a LEGO building experience in collaboration with LEGOLAND Discovery Centre and LEGO DREAMZzz. This event, part of the zoo's 50th anniversary celebrations, will be held at the Wildlife Marquee to commemorate the Zoo's birthday and the long weekend.
The activation will feature "two LEGO Master Model Builders who will construct a 22-foot LEGO mosaic wall and a large 3D model of the Narwhal Unicorn from the LEGO DREAMZzz TV series." Visitors will have the opportunity to engage with animal-themed LEGO creations, assist in building the 'Narwhal Unicorn,' and contribute to the mosaic wall to fit the theme of the zoo environment.
This family-friendly experience combines a love for wildlife with creative LEGO activities, offering a unique and interactive way to enjoy both interests; the 'LEGO Building Adventure at Toronto Zoo' will run from Thursday, August 29 through the Labour Day weekend.
