Big news for UK theme park fans: a world-first Minecraft-themed land is officially coming to Chessington World of Adventures in 2027.
After years of rumours and speculation, the park has confirmed it’s building a fully immersive land inspired by the global gaming phenomenon Minecraft—and it’s shaping up to be one of the most ambitious additions in UK theme park history.
A World-First Minecraft Theme Park Land
This won’t just be a themed area with a few decorations. Chessington is going all-in on creating a fully immersive Minecraft world, bringing the game’s iconic style to life.
The goal? To make guests feel like they’ve stepped inside the game itself.
A “World-First” Minecraft Coaster
One of the biggest reveals so far is a brand-new roller coaster, described as a “world-first” Minecraft attraction.
Themed Food & Retail
No immersive land is complete without themed extras, and Minecraft World will deliver:
- Themed dining experiences inspired by in-game items
- Exclusive merchandise, likely including mobs, tools, and collectibles
- Possibly even interactive dining concepts
If done right, this could rival some of the best themed lands in Europe for attention to detail.
Chessington is clearly aiming to create something special here—a land that blends gaming, storytelling, and immersive design in a way we haven’t seen before in the UK.
If the execution matches the ambition, Minecraft World could:
- Transform Chessington’s reputation
- Attract a whole new generation of visitors
- Become one of the most talked-about theme park additions in Europe
