Jungle Racers stays closed during Legoland Billund's first winter opening
Legoland Billund opened for a winter season for the first time at the end of 2022, but Jungle Racers was not part of the line-up. The water ride stayed closed with several other wet attractions while the park offered 32 other rides and Christmas activities.
More context
Legoland Billund made a notable move at the end of 2022: the original Legoland park opened in winter for the first time. From 26 November through 31 December, the park was dressed with hundreds of Christmas trees, more than 200,000 lights, winter scenes in Miniland, a large Duplo Christmas tree, Santa Claus, an ice rink and seasonal food stalls. For guests it created a new kind of Legoland visit, but not every attraction moved into the winter programme.
Jungle Racers stayed closed, together with other water attractions such as Vikings River Splash, Pirate Splash Battle, Piratbåde and Lego Canoe. The park still advertised a line-up of 32 attractions, including dark rides, roller coasters, a flying theatre and family rides. For Jungle Racers, the news mainly highlighted its seasonal role: during a winter visit to Legoland Billund, this wet, summer-minded ride was one to skip.
The decision fitted a wider strategy in which Legoland Billund built its first winter opening around Christmas atmosphere and dry crowd favourites. In the attraction's history, the article marks how Jungle Racers was handled when the park expanded its calendar into winter for the first time.
