We’ll admit that we’ve been really impressed with many of the events we’ve attended at LEGOLAND Florida. We had a blast celebrating all things soccer at LEGOLAND’s recent FIFA World Cup 2026 Experience. We had SO much fun at LEGOLAND’s Ninjago event. And we absolutely loved LEGOLAND’s Halloween Party.

Well, we recently got to attend ANOTHER fun LEGOLAND event, the LEGO Festival. This festival is currently running at LEGOLAND through August 16th and celebrates all things LEGO. So let’s take a look at what you can see, do, and eat at this family-friendly festival!

The LEGO Festival is built just for kids, and this year includes new zones, as well as returning fan favorites in the Music, Creativity, and Chill Out play zones, including brick build activities, amazing LEGO models, live shows, and LEGO character meet and greets.

When you enter the festival, you get a wristband and a map. If you collect a stamp on the map at each of the five zones, you get a free prize: a collectible poly bag and insider points! Here’s an idea of just how much you can see and do at the festival. It’s a LOT!!! You’ll have a jam-packed day if you attend the festival.

This year includes a brand new play zone, the LEGO Pokémon Play Zone. First, you select your LEGO Pokémon from a starting lineup: you can choose a Bulbasaur, Charmander, Eevee, Squirtle, and Pikachu.

Then you move to the next room to build a little sandwich to feed your Pokémon. Like us, Pokémon like to eat!

After that, the Pokémon must train, and then they do battle against each other.

You can also build your very own LEGO Poké Ball.

The F1 Thrill Zone is also new to the festival this year.

Here, you can take on the LEGO Formula 1 Brick Stop Challenge, where you have to race the clock for a pit stop change. There are six race cars, and the goal is to swap out parts really fast.

We also saw a pinewood derby-like ramp with different variations where you build your own LEGO race car and drop it down the hill to race other players.

The Pit Lane Hype show is a fun drumming show using car parts you’ll want to be sure to check out. The kids LOVED it. You’ll also see some F1-related builds here that are pretty cool!

In the LEGO Festival Music Zone, you can watch a Battle of the Bands show.  The show is really cute, and the kids were dancing a LOT, so you could tell they were enjoying it. The show is also very interactive, which the kids really responded to, as well. The two bands battle it out, then they work together, and then they unite.

The Music Zone even includes a giant mosaic you can contribute to, but the weather wasn’t cooperating (Florida rain, y’all!), so it was closed.

The LEGO Creative Zone lets you tap into your creativity to bring your creations to life. This might be one of our favorite zones because it’s in a huge air-conditioned room. Inside, you’ll find tables loaded with LEGO bricks.

Then there are two big tables with these beautiful dioramas where kids can place their creations. There’s also a new Master Model Builder show.

Need a break? Be sure to visit the LEGO Chill Out Zone, a peaceful plant-filled oasis with air conditioning and plenty of seating. Yes, we LOVED IT. Look at how CHILL it really is!

Here, you can create your own LEGO flower or LEGO bug. We made a bug! Then, you can add it to a garden and see the LEGO Gardener build. We added ours, but it was gone later in the day. Maybe it flew off?

The Hopsy show is also fun — it’s basically a storytime show with a giant LEGO DUPLO red rabbit and her human friend. You can also meet Hopsy!

On top of all that, you can also ride ALL the rides in LEGOLAND. Yep, there’s plenty to see and do. The best part, though, is that you get to attend the festival with just your regular LEGOLAND ticket. This festival, in particular, is great for younger kids, especially the ones who are too little for the bigger rides.

Let’s talk about the most important thing, though: the special LEGO Festival food and drinks. There is a special treat, the LEGO Minifigure Head Cookie, that’s available at LEGOLAND Coffee Co. It’s a cookie that you decorate yourself. You get the cookie and the icing to decorate it with in a little box that has instructions on how to make various minifigure faces.

Decorating the cookie was so much fun. The cookie itself, though, was a standard sugar cookie, and it was pretty hard. The icing was also not the greatest, but a kid is just not going to care about that. In fact, the minute we started decorating our cookie, we totally tapped into our inner child. Kids will love this, but adults were getting into it, too.

You can also pick up the Lyrical Lemonade, which is a frozen mango lemonade topped with juicy strawberry boba and fresh diced mango. If you have a bit of a sweet tooth, this lemonade might be just the thing you need. However, it’s still light and refreshing and not sickeningly sweet.

Overall, we really enjoyed LEGO Festival, and think it’s the perfect thing for families with little ones. We had a blast and were really surprised at just how much there was to do without even riding a single ride. It’s a great additional perk that you get just for buying a LEGOLAND Florida ticket.

We’ll be covering more special events at Orlando theme parks, so stay tuned to DFB for more.
