The ultimate celebration of play is returning to LEGOLAND® Resorts for a second year in 2026. Running from 20 July to 31 August, LEGO® Festival is inviting families to step into the festival experience designed with kids at the centre to spark creativity, self-expression and the simple joy of playing together.
Appearing at the next iteration of the festival of play are five interactive zones, including new content for fan-favourites in the Music, Creative and Chill Out Zones, alongside brand-new headliners in the Thrill and Play Zones, perfect for guests seeking unique and unmissable experiences at festival.
Guests will kick off their day of awesomeness with their LEGO Festival wristband, collected on arrival, and a festival map. These colourful guides unlock the full festival experience, marking guests as an official festival goer ready to play, explore, and celebrate creativity across the park all day long.
Not only that, for extra LEGO Festival bragging rights, guests can participate in the 3 Build Challenge and collect stamps on the LEGO Festival map as they conquer each zone. It’s as easy as Build, Collect, Reward – those completing three or more exclusive LEGO® Festival brick-building activities, can pick up 3‑in‑1 LEGO® Creator gift before heading home. Plus, there’s a LEGO Insiders points giveaway available for grown-up builders too.
Across the festival site, guests can expect themed play zones with hands-on brick-building activities, photo-worthy LEGO models, live shows, family challenges and a chance to meet many different LEGO characters in real life.
Guests can expect:
Music Zone: Turn up the volume and rock out in the Music zone featuring the “Battle of the Bands” show, where Rockstars and Popstars go head-to-head.
