Get ready for a blocky adventure! Mojang Studios and Merlin Entertainments are partnering to bring Minecraft to life in real-world theme parks.
A Blocky Adventure Awaits
Merlin Entertainments, the company behind Alton Towers and Legoland, is investing heavily in the first two Minecraft attractions, launching in the UK and US between 2026 and 2027. Expect immersive experiences including themed accommodation, food, beverages, thrilling rides, and more.
