Families can build, dance, and play their way through summer as LEGO Festival returns to LEGOLAND Florida Resort in Winter Haven from July 20 through Aug. 16. Included with regular park admission and annual passes, the limited-time event transforms the theme park into an immersive celebration of creativity with interactive experiences, live entertainment, and hands-on building activities. 

New this year is the LEGO Pokémon Play Zone, where guests can be among the first to experience the upcoming LEGO Pokémon SMART Play sets before they launch in stores later this summer. The interactive area invites children to train like Pokémon Trainers through 15-minute guided experiences, complete creative challenges, and interact with larger-than-life LEGO Pokémon displays.

Another new addition is the F1 Thrill Zone, inspired by LEGO Formula 1 racing. Families can build and test their own LEGO race cars, take on the Brick Stop Challenge to complete a pit stop against the clock, and enjoy the high-energy Pit Lane Hype live drum show. 

In addition to the new attractions, guests can explore three returning festival favorites: 

  • Music Zone featuring live performances, dancing, and interactive entertainment. 
  • Creative Zone, where builders can collaborate on large-scale LEGO creations and hands-on projects. 
  • Chill Out Zone, a nature-inspired, sensory-friendly space designed for younger children and families looking to relax between activities. 

Throughout the park, visitors can participate in the 3 Build Challenge by completing at least three exclusive LEGO building activities. Guests who finish the challenge can receive a complimentary LEGO Creator reward while supplies last. Every child can also pick up a free festival wristband and event map to help navigate the five themed zones. 

The festival is included with admission, allowing guests to enjoy all of LEGOLAND Florida’s rides, attractions, and shows in addition to the seasonal offerings. Visitors can also cool off at LEGOLAND Water Park, explore SEA LIFE Florida Aquarium, or experience Galacticoaster, the resort’s new indoor family roller coaster, all during the same visit. 

LEGO Festival runs daily through Aug. 16 at LEGOLAND Florida Resort in Winter Haven. For more information, visit HERE.
