  Our family is a huge fan of all things Lego and we had a good time in the park. For starters, it was surprisingly not busy for a Sunday in late summer - but I suspect it’s because it was a really hot day. The park itself offers some shade and reprieve from the heat, but it’s still hot; so be prepared for this if it’s cooking outside! The rides themselves are catered towards a younger child - if you’ve been to Disneyland, these aren’t close to the level of immersion and production value you’d find there. For example, the immersive Ninjago ride uses similar hardware to Disney’s Spider-Man Webslingers ride, but the latter has a video intro, instructions, and gives the rider a clear idea of what to expect - Legoland doesn’t. In fact, our first time through (we rode it twice), we had no idea what to do! The new Galacticoaster was super fun, but it’s really short, noticeably so. Food options are plentiful, but the chicken I had at the BBQ place was super salty, and tasted like a Costco rotisserie that had been sitting under a heat-lamp. The chicken strips were priced reasonably for a theme park, but they too were pretty gross. To be honest, the worst thing was the build a minifig purchase - we bought this with our tickets, but that constrains you to build your minifig at one store on site; their selection is worse than most mall Lego stores (like it sucked). Instead, it’s the same price to pay to build three minifigs at any of the stores on site and you’re better off to buy on site once you or your kids see what’s available. Mini land was incredibly cool and seeing the larger real Lego structures was awesome. I wish some of the other Lego structures on site showed a piece count or made it clear whether we were looking at a real Lego creation, or a hollow Lego-like structure. Given it was the last day of the Lego festival, we were hoping for at least some entertainment options - but the shows were limited, we saw just one character on site, and for a ticket priced similar to Disneyland, the production value just wasn’t there. The good - the park was really clean, exceptionally so. Most staff were friendly too. Don’t set your expectations high, and if you’ve been to other theme parks, this just doesn’t compare.

  Was a fun time and glad we got to experience this place. Overall laid back and lots of interaction. Lots to see. Great place to hang out. Lots of things to do and see. Some good food available but not cheap. Lots of fun.
