The world’s best-selling game Minecraft is getting its first official theme park. Located at Chessington World of Adventures in southwest London, the new attraction is just 35 minutes from central London by train. For fans across the globe, this is a dream realized: the blocky world of Minecraft is finally becoming a physical destination.
Roller Coasters, Floating Islands, and More
The confirmed attractions include a custom-themed roller coaster designed around the game’s aesthetic, plus a massive floating island where visitors can experience the sensation of flight—one of Minecraft’s most beloved mechanics in physical form. The park will also feature an extensive merchandise shop and themed dining experiences that replicate “Minecraft cuisine,” letting guests shop and eat alongside playing. Microsoft and the park operators emphasize that every element is designed to make visitors “lose themselves” in the Minecraft experience.
2027 Opening: A Decade of Waiting Ends
The UK theme park is slated to open in 2027. Fans have already flooded social media with excitement, with many calling it the realization of a childhood dream. Others are already speculating whether additional Minecraft parks will open in other countries. For Microsoft, this is more than a theme park; it’s a major milestone in translating digital IP into tangible, experiential worlds—a proven strategy that strengthens brand loyalty across gaming audiences in Asia-Pacific and beyond. The blocky universe finally has a physical home.
