    WARNING! Do NOT come here without a reservation and tickets. Or, at least check to see if they are still doing metered admissions due to covid. We saw at least one parent and child stand in line for 15 minutes only to find out that it was sold out for the day at 1230pm. Don't be the parent that has to leave with a sad Lego fan. Overall, a great place to take your kids. There's several exhibits and activities that they can do. They have at least 3 rides: spinning merry-go-round, a shooter ride, and "go-karts". BEWARE: the go-karts are open kids of all skill levels (of driving), but if you're kid is not good at go-karts, they will inevitably ruin the experience for all other kids during that round. The kids will probably upset the parents of the 5 other kids, and there's a reason for this. Parents and their kids have to wait roughly 30-45 minutes for their kids to have a turn to ride for a measly 60-90 seconds. This should be enough time to do at least 2 laps. As I stood watching at least 10 races go by, only 1 race happened where all kids completed at least 1 lap. The reason why laps are not finished is because inexperienced kids either do not know to press the foot pedal or they do not have the eye-hand coordination to maneuver the steering wheel. Getting stuck or needing help required the staff to REMOTELY cut power to ALL vehicles in order to safely help those in need. Of the 9 out of 10 races, there's always at least one set of frustrated it disgruntled parents. I'm not saying this to discourage parents/kids, but to bring awareness so that maybe you can help prepare your child before they attempt to race. This would make it a much better experience to everyone, including the kids, parents, AND the staff. Furthermore, the staff really needs to do something about efficiency. There is so much time in between races. The next round of kids should already be prepped before the current race ends. There should be a quick transition. At the time that we went, there's only one staff member at a time managing this activity. They could double the number races that they have if they address inefficiencies. Also, why is there a phone that rings? Obviously their staff is busy and understaffed at this attraction. Seems like poor management from my perspective. No fault of the employees. Actually, there was one gentleman that has a lot of energy and interacted well with the kids. The kids would really enjoy this attraction if the staff were given more resources. The wizard merry-go-round is a lot of fun, according to my 5-year old. He didn't want to go up and down. Luckily, I believe this mechanic is controlled by the inner seat (where the child sits). No matter how hard I peddled, our chair did not lift. The shooter ride was fun. There's up to 3 riders in front and 2 riders in back. I wish there were more interactive sounds. Feedback on whether or not you hit would be nice. The 4D "ride" was more like a movie. Unlike most 4D rides, you don't need to get started into this one as it's not physically moving. Instead, you get lights on either side of the theater that coordinate with what's happening in screen me there's also fans (very quiet btw) that adds gusts of wind when the time is right, adding to the immersive experience. There are many other things the kids can do. Overall, a great place to take the kids!

    Places really try to get as much money out of you as they can these days. Took my 8 year old son. Price was 60 dollars for two tickets. 2-12 year old tickets were the same price. My son saw pretty much everything in 30 min. We rode both ride that came with general admission. Anything else worth doing or seeing was extra. The 4D theater wasn’t even working. The food court was closed. My kid would of been just as happy buying a 60 dollar Lego set at target and sitting at the house building it. Worth about $15 dollars worth of fun. If you are questioning coming here then don’t. Take your kids to a park that’s free with a playground. You will save money and they will have just as much fun.

    Good place to spend for about 2 to 3 hours.. The 4 D movie is a good experience and two of the rides are OK. Food options are minimal with just a Starbucks inside Now for the reason for the 4 stars are noted below: Restrooms are stinking. The water fountain seriously needs good cleaning (see photo for reference) The outside water park is pretty slippery in a particular spot and most of the kids are slipping. Be cautious when seated under the blue umbrellas inside the water park, they are very flimsy and are falling over.

    Legoland was a blast! My 2 step kids, boyfriend, toddler, and I went. I was a little worried that my toddler would be to young for this, but they have a toddler area! Google and their website is wrong they open at 10:00 and stop letting people in at 3:30. Bring snacks, or eat at the malls food court, there's a cafe in Legoland and it's not good, but they do have Starbucks! DO NOT BUY TICKETS AT THE GATE, buy them on the website at least a couple of days before or you'll be paying twice as much! If this helps please like the review so I know!

    Just don't do it. You'll spend a lot of money on one ride, a playground and a movie. The lego car they drive takes about 3 minutes, and the 3d experience is an extra $7.00. The water splash is closed. The other ride they had is closed, too. The place is dirty, rundown. In serious need of an update. If your child is older than 8yo it is going to be very bored here. My nephew 4 yo was find my daughter was extremely bored. Not worth the money at all.

    For the price of admission there is not a whole lot to do. The Kiddos were bored after 30 minutes. We did enjoy making the Lego pictures and cars. The 4D movie was decent. The other features they have should be included with the price of admission.

  • 5/5 Harley Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Paid the extra $7 for the activity kit. The kid gets a lanyard and it has several activities they do as they go through the different areas. As they complete an activity they can stamp their sheets on the lanyard. At the end they get a special clip to put on the lanyard and a sticker pack to go with the activity pack. Everything is included except the virtual reality ride. The beat part of all was the kids designing their own custom mini figure! It's $12 each but it's worth it when you get to design your own. KIDS HAD A BLAST! (10 yr and 7yr girls)

    It was a decent experience. Definetly buy your tickets ahead of time. The areas felt crowded with very limited staff to keep safety measures. The wait for the rides was long due to what I think are some staffing issues. One person to clean and operate the rides. Pirates Beach was completely unsupervised by staff and dirty. The outside area needs maintenance.

    It's a mini play ground for kids. Our kiddo enjoyed the experience. It was cool to see the kids building and creating with legos together. Pricing is okay. Probably a one time event that we went, we saw, now it's time to go see something else kinda place.

    Great layout and variety of activities. 10min(ish) movies, laser blaster ride, bike/magician ride, building spaces, .... Some play spaces have seating for adults - but be prepared to play alongside your child/children and/or stand most of the time. Ideal age range for this place is probably 4-9 years old.

    I gave it 3 stars because my son loved it. He’s also 5. Due to a lot of the exhibits being closed, they could at least lower the price. You do not get your money’s worth. Do not buy the $7 adventure pack thing. It is a waste of money with some exhibits being closed. The associate let the kids ride the Lego cars for 1 minute, literally. All they could do there really was build Lego cars and roll them down the track. Legos are everywhere on the floor so be careful when walking. Cool Lego photo opps and a nice room with 3D Lego versions of places. Since my son enjoyed himself, so I at least gave it 3 stars, but I wouldn’t pay to go again. At least to this particular location

    Price wise I thought it was a little expensive for the size but I'm an adult. What was important is that my son enjoyed himself and he did. I paid for the combine package for Sealife and he enjoyed that and well. I love aquariums. This one was on a smaller scale but the price both attractions it wasn't too bad.

    The employees were very nice and it was interesting. My grandkids are 12 and 13 so it’s geared a little more for the younger children. We rode the little rides ( grandson was pretty long legged for one 🤣)and made a Lego wall picture. I had a promo so I got the tickets for 15.00 each so I paid 45.00 for the three of us. If I would have had to buy at full price I would not have been able to justify 1 star. Just not enough to do for the money. There is a Starbucks and Pizza available to buy and that may stretch out the visit if you are trying to get 3 or 4 hours of fun. If not we were done in less than 2 hours.

    I recommend buying the package deal. You can get Peppa's World, the Aquarium and Legoland for a better price than buying each park separately. Legoland was cool, Legos were everywhere. Watch your step. There's 3 rides for the kids. And the 3D movie was awesome. We spent about 1.5 hours. They do provide alot of hand sanitizer. The gift store is a little overpriced. And there's a Starbucks inside with a different menu and a small small water park on the outside. 3-10 years old👌🏾.

    Disappointed. We cane years ago and they had more areas with master builder items like Star Wars. None of that anymore. It is gears to very young children with few areas for larger groups. Couple machines broke down while we were there as well. This place is over priced for what you are getting. Kids did find some stuff to entertain themselves, but was a very short visit. That being said, staff working were great and very friendly.

    LEGOLAND, was pretty awesome! It was very packed when we went, but it was tax free weekend, so that's to be expected. There was a fun jungle gym like area for the kids to play in, several Lego building centers spread out so that everyone could build, and even a really awesome ride that you were able to go up in the air on! There were several activities that we didn't get to experience, simply because it was so packed, but 10/10 would recommend!

    My 6 year old loved it. Rides were a good level for 3-7 years old or so. There was one ride my 3 year old couldn't do. Lots of different areas you really have to keep exploring and walk around. Cafe doesn't have any food except for pizza (just snacks and ice cream) so plan accordingly since you can't bring food in either. Splash pad was very fun but the biggest con of the day was that the splash pad has only about 10 foam Lego blocks to play with. No less than 4 kids were in total tears/meltdown because they all wanted to build something and were just stealing from each other. Either add more blocks or get rid of them all. 10 for the whole splash pad was a joke.

    REALLY cool spot that my family loved! Helpful and friendly staff and some neat exhibits. I wish the 4d movie effects were working but everything else was great!

    Expensive for what the overall experience offers as the water park was closed so we didn't get the full experience for the price of the ticket. We paid $7 extra per child for the passport stamp kit which the kids enjoyed finding the clues. The 3D movie was really good and the mini USA was a great overview of Texas.

    After paying over $60 for two people, we were very disappointed with what was inside here. It's mostly a series of very crowded rides for very young kids. We were expecting more sculptures made from Legos and info about Legos, but it is actually a theme park for little kids.

    Not as big as I expected but the kids have so much fun. Love to come during school Time since there is no waiting line and hassle

    We went at the end of July. It got busy quickly, but we still had a great time. My son is 8, and my nephew is 2 and they both had fun. Bonus points for there being a Starbucks inside. My sister and I loved that! My nephew couldn't do as many things as my son, but he didn't really notice because there was plenty for him to do. We spent about 2 hours here but could have easily spent way more time. If you like legos, you'll enjoy this spot. I felt the price was fair for our experience. We will be back!

    Fun place but definitely overpriced with half the place closed. Wish the big city showroom had better lighting, it was so cool! The wall art and dots room was fun, the normal building zones were a bit lacking in pieces so had to dig around too much.

    Lego land was fun and will always be. But the reason why i cut off one star is because some of the places were very unorganized. For example in the shop the make your own Lego mini-figure the section was so messy to where I decided not to buy the figure. Hair pieces and clothes were everywhere. Other than that it was fun. 🤩 Het ready because the movie theater has no glasses. It doesn’t work. So you don’t get the 3D experience that you are looking for. Cool stuff though. Can’t go wrong with Lego!!

    Great place to bring your class on a field trip or your own going kids. The kids can run around freely while playing because it's secured and the kids aren't allowed to leave the play area. They have a food bar and Starbucks. They have rides that even adults can ride.

  • 3/5 Special Ops Apparel Promotional's and D. 1 year ago on Google
    I am rating a 3 for a few reasons . First we had to book a time for the place and when we arrived it was so packed my kids didn’t even get to do any of the actual Lego activities at all so for me it wasn’t worth the money we paid . They loved playing in the activity area and seeing the mini Lego land and doing the VR simulation ride which was extra online but as far as all the actual Lego activities and the few rides we didn’t get to the lines were estimated at an hour long each , the place smelled like dirty diapers , the 4d theater was packed as well and not sure if it was the quality of the film or being on front row but it was hard to watch without covering one eye . I would say to go during a school day if you have small kids , would be the best time and not really recommended for anyone over 8

    This was great for smaller kids,my son is 8, and there were a few things that he was "too big" for. He still enjoyed it, and the water feature kept him fresh. Highly recommend when keeping a big group of smaller kids entertained.

    Very cool place but watch out for school field trips. Plenty to do and a lot of neat engagement areas. Some neat Lego artwork as well. Staff was super friendly and ready to help and discuss.

    My kids had a blast. I see other children having a great time too. Just be Mindful many attractions are closed. It could be possible that this place doesn’t have effective amount of personal working. Or they re doing upgrades. Regardlessly paying full price for the few attractions and activity is the end goal this location . My kids stayed at location for 3 hours. I have a boy and a girl ages 4/3

    Went for Adults night and had a great time. Fun group activities and very friendly hosts and staff. Thad did a great job as the MC. Will go again for the next one!!

  • 3/5 Carley G. 2 months ago on Google • 6 reviews New
    Had a fun time at adult night but wish I could’ve done more. We were stuck standing in long lines due to overcrowding and only got to do some of the challenges/activities/rides and not all the rides were open for the adults. I also wish there was more that we could've made and taken home as a souvenir, for the price. But I had fun in the jungle gym, enjoyed the silent auction/raffle, and creating tiles and adding it to the wall.
