The Ultimate Christmas Attraction in Budapest: A Life-Sized LEGO Tram awaits visitors in December in the city centre of Budapest.

Built with nearly 1.8 million LEGO bricks, this colourful masterpiece weighs an astonishing 4.5 tons and measures 11.5 meters long. Designed by LEGO master builder Balázs Dóczy, the tram, nicknamed ‘LEGO Vili‘ (combining the words William / Vilmos, Streetcar / Villamos and Electricity / Villany), is not just a marvel of creativity but also a symbol of joy and imagination. Not only for families with kids, but all LEGO enthusiasts, this dazzling attraction is a must-see this Advent season in Budapest for unique photo opportunities.

Budapest’s Festive Public Transport goes beyond the classic Light Tram, Light Bus, Light Trolley and Light Coghweel!

Located at Deák Ferenc Square, the LEGO tram brings a playful twist to Budapest’s bustling city life. Though you, sadly, can’t ride the tram, it’s a spectacular celebration of community, creativity, and the importance of play and team work. Powered by the freight tram “Muki,” this interactive exhibit reminds visitors of the fun side of public transport while highlighting the city’s deep connection to trams (for over 137 years now). Beyond its visual appeal, the LEGO Tram inspires everyone—from kids to future urban planners—about how imagination can transform the everyday into something extraordinary.

Why the LEGO Tram Matters

This masterpiece isn’t just about play—it’s a reminder of the joy and benefits of shared creativity. According to LEGO Group research, play fosters connection, creativity, and happiness, yet families today find less time for it. The LEGO tram encourages visitors to embrace their playful side, making it a unique activity for those celebrating the holidays in Budapest. Adventurers can even add their LEGO pieces to the tram’s foundation, making it an interactive memory of Budapest’s vibrant community spirit.
