[May 18, 2021, HONG KONG] LEGOLAND® Discovery Centre Hong Kong announced it is launching Hong Kong’s inaugural Creative Crew Competition to identify 11 LEGO® fans, aged between 5 to 12, as its ambassadors. The young finalists will help the Master Model Builder team in Hong Kong with various fun and educational activities throughout the year.

The submission of entry will be held from May 18 to June 15, 2021. 20 selected finalists will move on to the final round at a live Grand Finale event on June 24, 2021.

The Creative Crew is a global campaign organised by LEGOLAND® Discovery Centres worldwide to engage young, aspiring LEGO® fans through creative learning and play. It will be the first time the competition will be run in Hong Kong.

“Since our opening at K11 MUSEA in March 2021, we have received such positive feedback – from parents and kids alike - on the fun and educational experiences they’ve enjoyed at LEGOLAND® Discovery Centre Hong Kong,” said Ben Sweet, New Openings Director – Asia Pacific, Merlin Entertainments. “We trust the launch of the Creative Crew Competition will provide the perfect platform for young children to build their creative confidence, overcome obstacles with the guidance of our Model Master Builder, and most importantly, make life-long friendships with those who share a love for LEGO.”
