With the UEFA Women’s EURO competition underway, LEGOLAND Discovery Centre Manchester has paid tribute to England’s Lionesses as they get ready to play in the semi-final tomorrow (Tuesday 26th July).
England opened the home tournament when they took on Austria at Old Trafford on Wednesday 6th of July and Sarina Wiegman’s team has been one of the hot favourites to lift the trophy come July 31st.
To give the Lionesses an extra push, LEGOLAND Discovery Centre Manchester has celebrated the national side, by creating a football scene in the attraction’s iconic MINILAND.
Home to miniature versions of Manchester’s most famous sites and attractions, MINILAND’s latest edition features England’s starting 11 on the pitch at Old Trafford, paying homage to their opening match in the Euros tournament.
On top of this the centre has decked out the MINILAND in flags and fans to ensure England have all the support needed to go all the way to European glory.
Jenn McDonough, General Manager at LEGOLAND Discovery Centre Manchester, said, “We cannot wait to watch our Lionesses play in the semi-finals against Sweden tomorrow. We know they have a huge chance of going all the way this year and we wanted to show the team they have our full support.
As the tournament kicked off in Manchester, we thought what better way to celebrate the team than to give our MINILAND a footballing makeover. We’re looking forward to seeing guests catch the football fever and hope to see the whole nation cheering on England tomorrow.”
