KUALA LUMPUR, 1 August 2024 – Bonjour builders, let’s go to Paris with The LEGO Group! The LEGO Group is unveiling Malaysia’s first LEGO Parisian Café and Art Gallery experience to ignite the travel bug in visitors!
Experience Parisian Magic
Bringing the Paris experience closer to home, fans in Malaysia can visit an exclusive Parisian-themed pop-up at Urban Node Atrium, Ground Floor (MRT Plaza Entrance), The Exchange TRX from now to 25 August.
Aimed at adults with a passion for travel, this campaign takes shoppers through Parisian-inspired streets decorated with LEGO elements, inviting travel enthusiasts to embark on a refreshing journey to explore the magic of the French capital, one brick at a time.
Those bitten by the travel bug can live their wanderlust dream at The LEGO Group’s Let’s Go Paris event. Shoppers can expect the space to be adorned with common sights of the city, such as quaint alfresco dining areas, a LEGO Eiffel Tower for that perfect Instagram photo, bountiful flower carts radiating vibrance, and an art gallery and museum showcasing LEGO ‘artwork’ that evokes the culture of the city of light and love.
Additionally, shoppers can collect an event-exclusive LEGO Passport for free by signing up for a free membership with Box of Bricks. They can redeem a limited-edition passport and Notre-Dame stamp to build up their stamp collection, which is usually available only at travel retail stores in airports, LEGOLAND Malaysia, and selected LEGO Certified Stores around the world.
Global Icons of Paris
Highlighting this campaign are two of LEGO’s newest products that celebrate the iconic landmarks of Paris – the 31213 LEGO Art Mona Lisa and 21061 LEGO Architecture Notre-Dame de Paris sets, where the campaign bridges the fun of play with what makes travel unique.
Often considered one of the most romantic cities in the world, shoppers can also check out the 10334 LEGO Icons Retro Radio, 21345 LEGO Polaroid Camera, 10328 LEGO Icons Bouquet of Roses, 10307 LEGO Eiffel Tower and 21349 LEGO Ideas Tuxedo Cat for a fun and romantic building experience with their loved ones.
Ágnes Molnár, Marketing Director of Singapore, Malaysia and APAC Travel Retail, The LEGO Group said, “This is the first-ever campaign designed specifically for adult fans of LEGO in Malaysia. Fans will especially be delighted to see the various Parisian-inspired setups at our Let’s Go Paris event in The Exchange TRX, as we aim to offer a unique opportunity to experience and celebrate the stunning art, charming culture and magnificent architecture of the city of love, as though they are strolling through the streets of Paris themselves.”
“We are ecstatic to collaborate with The LEGO Group to bring Malaysia’s first Parisian Café and Art Gallery to The Exchange TRX! This opulent experience allows our shoppers to live or relive their Parisian dreams through the creativity and imagination beyond LEGO bricks,” added Trevor Hill, General Manager at The Exchange TRX.
