The Solberg Airport is not the only place to watch the 40th Anniversary of New Jersey Lottery Festival of Ballooning this weekend.
Find the perfect viewing spot at LEGOLAND® Discovery Center New Jersey. The Center has created New Jersey’s smallest Festival of Ballooning – all made from LEGO® bricks!
The full-scale replica of the festival can be seen by guests in MINILAND, a cityscape of New York and New Jersey made up of over 1.5 million LEGO® bricks.
In addition, LEGOLAND Discovery Center New Jersey’s Master Model Builder, Anthony Snyder, did a live LEGO® build at the Festival of Ballooning on Friday, July 28. He scoped the various activities and play areas at the festival and recreated the scenes using LEGO® bricks.
Over 150 LEGO Minifigures participated in the festival, with crowds of mini-audience, iconic features like hot air balloons, concerts and bands, thrill shows, magic show, and even a LEGO® 5K race.
Families enjoyed the live LEGO build, spoke to Anthony to learn building techniques, and won LEGO sets and giveaways at their booth.
