LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort has unveiled a brand-new attraction at the heart of its iconic MINILAND, celebrating Johor’s sporting spirit through a LEGO recreation of the iconic Sultan Ibrahim Stadium, home of Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) Football Club.

Launched on 16 August 2026, the new MINILAND Sultan Ibrahim Stadium brings one of Johor’s most recognisable sporting landmarks into the LEGO world. Featuring detailed model craftsmanship, dynamic lighting and animated match-day moments, the attraction reflects the actual energy of Johor football.

At LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort, MINILAND celebrates the stories, cultures and achievements that define Malaysia and the region, making the addition of Sultan Ibrahim Stadium a natural extension of that mission.

BRINGING JOHOR’S FOOTBALL PRIDE TO LIFE IN MINILAND

The new attraction represents the next evolution of MINILAND experiences, combining intricate LEGO craftsmanship with enhanced interactivity, immersive soundscapes and dynamic lighting effects. 

As the newest addition to MINILAND’s collection of iconic regional landmarks and cityscapes, Sultan Ibrahim Stadium celebrates one of Johor’s key modern landmarks and the extraordinary success of JDT Football Club. More than a recreation of a stadium, the attraction honours the club, a source of pride for Johoreans and football fans across the region.

“At LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort, MINILAND celebrates the stories, cultures and achievements that define the nation and the wider region. The addition of Sultan Ibrahim Stadium is a significant milestone, showcasing a modern icon of Johor while resonating with both Malaysians and football fans from around the world,” said Cs Lim, Vice President of LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort. “This new attraction also reflects MINILAND’s continued evolution, where immersive storytelling, interactive features and innovative LEGO building techniques come together as meaningful experiences that will turn into core memories for our guests”

Alistair Edwards, Chief Operating Officer of Johor Darul Ta’zim Football Club, said: “Sultan Ibrahim Stadium represents much more than a football venue – it is a symbol of Johor’s ambition, unity and passion.  Its inclusion in MINILAND introduces our story to a new generation of visitors, allowing families and football fans to experience the spirit of JDT in a creative and memorable way. We are proud to be part of an attraction that celebrates Johor on an international stage.”

Built using more than 400,000 LEGO bricks, the MINILAND attraction recreates the excitement of a live football match through crowd animation, lighting effects, and storytelling inspired by the Southern Tigers’ home ground. Whether they are dedicated JDT supporters, football enthusiasts or visitors taking MINILAND in for the very first time, guests can experience Johor’s football culture through the creativity and imagination of LEGO play.
