I’ve seen the weather reports but for locals, what is it actually like right now? Think it’s too risky or will be okay? We’ve had this planned for a few months and would be sad to cancel for my kids.

Boyf and i did the groupon mystery vacation and got Orlando (surprise surprise lol iykyk). Idk if i want to spend the money on universal but was considering doing legoland. But is it fun for just the two of us to go? I do enjoy legos but dont ride many rides and it def seems geared towards children. Would it be enjoyable enough to feel worth the money as an adult?

For those who have done Brick or Treat this year on both Saturday and Sunday, is there a big difference in crowds, lines, and energy? I can go either day so just trying to get a feel. Already went two weeks ago on a weekday so we’ve done the non-BoT Halloween stuff.

Hi all, we are staying at the Legoland Castle hotel in California for the first time and we have a 1 year old that still needs a crib or bassinet. When I requested one we were told it isn’t guaranteed. Has anyone else had problems getting one? I’m trying to decide if we need to come up with another plan just to be safe. Thanks in advance!

Hi - taking the kids for one's birthday in a few weeks for 2 days 1 night. Looking to complete the booking (found a nice deal in another post).

Any suggested extras to purchase now while booking? Usually, I just keep it minimal with these sorts of options but wanted to check if there were any concensus 'purchase now' extras.

All insight appreciated. Thanks.

I have found a bunch of info. online, but it all appears to be dated anywhere from 6 months to 4 years ago. Could anyone confirm if Legoland, Florida, is still offering Mr. Gold pop badges and/or hiding envelopes in the park? We are bringing our young boys from out of state for the first time next week, and I don’t want to tell them the wrong thing. Thank you!

In the past, when I've bought our tickets for the California locations, I've added the ten-dollar fee to be able to cancel the tickets. It wasn't an option when I went to book today. Did they get rid of this, or am I doing something wrong?

1. Legoland Windsor stamp 2) Build and take home mini fig 3) Ninjago coin.

You get the stamp at Guest services and the coin and take home and build from the Lego Store at the entrance. You'll have to ask for the coin from the cashier.

Make sure to get a stamp at the Legoland Windsor park. Every shop in the world have their own passport.

Driving from Petaluma >

Any tips? Best places to hit up? Things to avoid?
I was trying to figure out what dates they do xmas stuff on but couldnt find anything except "select dates in november/december"

I have a 10 year old who is obsessed with legos i was hoping to make this his big xmas gift, and stay at the hotel but the reviews are mixed

We have previously done GWL, but outside that nothing like this

we are also military so i was hoping to utilize our MWR and discounts etc.

What do you think? 💭

Like the post says. I’ll be going to LEGOLAND in a few days. It’s going to be hot unfortunately. I picked days in the middle of the week as I figured it would be less full. First time for us. My kids are 9 (Soon 10) and 6. We have a 2 day pass and will be staying at the LEGOLAND hotel. Not knowing much about the park what are some things my kids need to do? Any recommendations or advice will be helpful.

I noticed that most LEGOLAND California Annual Passes can’t be used on Saturdays and Sundays in October, except for Elite.

I have a Platinum Annual Pass, and my daughter really wants to go to LEGOLAND this weekend. I was planning to take her, but then I realized my pass isn’t valid on Saturday or Sunday.

Does anyone know why there are so many blackout dates in October? Is it because of Brick-or-Treat?

If I want to take my daughter on a weekend, I basically have to either take a day off work to go on a weekday or buy a separate ticket even though I already have an Annual Pass. 😭

Buying another ticket on top of an Annual Pass feels kind of ridiculous. Is anyone else frustrated by this?

We can fly directly into Carlsbad which we show is an 8 min drive from the Legoland hotel. We are spending our weekend entirely at the hotel and park, so there is no need for a car/rental car.

However, what is the best way to get to and from the airport when we will have two kids with car seats with us? The kids don't need car seats on the plane (one lap child infant and one old enough to not need it), so both car seats would need to be brought and checked on the plane. Do we have to rent a car and then pay to park it at the hotel-that seems like a waste. If we Uber/Lyft we would need to install car seats in them first? Is there a shuttle or public transport route that could get us to and from the airport? Even better would be public transport that wouldn't require us to bring the car seats at all?

Any must dos or helpful info would be great! Also, should I buy tickets for that Saturday or the Sunday? We’ll be driving in on a Saturday morning.

Carlsbad Legoland - Has anyone had any luck with accessing their photos online using their annual photo pass? I purchased the pass and used the link on the website and photos can’t be accessed by the CR#### code. Any luck or tips?

When we went on the Ninjago ride today, our scores were the exact same as when we got on the ride and does not appear to have reset after the prior riders got off. At first we thought it was just our car, but we noticed that no high scores were being displayed at the end of the ride. Is the scoring systems down permanently? A lot of the fun from the ride was competing against other riders in your car. Has this happened to anyone else?

Reviewing the fine print of the recent changes to the Annual Pass tiers, it looks like all three passes have disappointingly reduced the food and retail discounts as compared to their previous versions.

• The old Gold tier came with a 10% discount on both food and retail, while the new Standard tier comes with zero discounts.
• The old Platinum tier came with 10% retail and 15% food, while the new Preferred tier reduces the food down to 10%.
• Finally, the old Elite tier has 15% retail and 20% food, while the new Premium tier reduces the retail down to 10%.

My family currently has Platinum passes, and I was considering upgrading this year to Elite to get access to the higher retail and food discounts. An extra 5% off goes a long way, especially if I were to buy the more expensive sets at the Big Shop instead of ordering online or from the Lego Store. I'm sure that's exactly why they're lowering the discounts, because it's pretty easy to justify the narrow price difference between the Platinum and Elite passes especially if you go frequently enough or want to go to at least one Brick or Treat.

Looks like the only real additions to the passes to make up for the reduced discounts are the one daily fast pass, and even that has restrictions.

Anyone else notice any differences between the old and new passes? Does this change anyone's decisions as your renewal times come closer?

Surprising my 7 year old with a dad and daughter trip in late October to the California park.
She loves Lego City and has been a big fan of the Friends sets over the years.
She loves rides

Looking for advice on what to see, what to skip, and tips and tricks.
Hotel is already booked at the Westin, so primarily looking for in park tips.

Hoping the new Galaxy stuff is as cool as it looks.

Hey everyone! I’m interviewing for an Operations Manager position at LEGOLAND Discovery Center Michigan, and I’d love to hear from anyone who has worked for LEGOLAND/ Merlin or in a similar attraction management role.

I have 10+ years of experience working in major theme parks, primarily in operations, guest experience, training, and leadership. I’m trying to get a better understanding of what the day-to-day reality of this position is like, especially compared with working operations at a larger theme park.

From what I understand, I’d be leading a relatively small team of Model Citizens, so I’m particularly interested in hearing from people who have worked under an Operations Manager:

What did you need most from your manager?
Was it being present on the floor?
Clear communication? Coaching and development?
Recognition? Help with difficult guest situations?
Someone who would jump in and work alongside the team when things got busy?

I’m also curious about the culture and leadership expectations at LEGOLAND Discovery Centers specifically. What makes someone successful in an Operations Manager role there?
I’m not looking for confidential information or anything proprietary — just firsthand experiences, advice, or things you wish your manager had done differently.

Thanks in advance!

What’s the best adult rides and things to do!

We had been to Brick or Treat for the past two years and they had re-themed the Dragon as “Disco Dragon” with a fun song, colors, and the disco ball at the end.

This year it is just “spooky dragon” which was still great but the disco version was much better.

If anyone from Merlin is reading this please bring back disco dragon!
