Celebrating the Power of Play

Lego Las Vejas in Mini Land Usea at Legoland Ca

LEGOLAND California in Carlsbad is one of the most popular attractions in all of San Diego. Perfect for families with younger kids, the park features rides, character meet-and-greets, shows and more, all designed to entertain and educate.

Our founder Todd has taken his family to the park on multiple occasions and told me that the park does an especially good job with their seasonal events. His family’s favorites so far have been the Brick-or-Treat Monster Party in the fall and Holidays at LEGOLAND over Christmas and the winter holidays.

The Red, White & BOOM! event set for the 4th of July this year is of interest for all of us as well. It seems like the event could make for an exciting family day together.

Introducing the All New LEGO Festival

The LEGO Festival is all new in 2025! Celebrating the power of play, LEGOLAND California’s spring event will offer five unique play zones all designed for kids to use their imagination, be creative and most importantly to have fun.

LEGOLAND believes that play isn’t just for a day but rather ‘a way of life!’

These events are often included with admission and for us the added decorations and events make for a nice bonus. It’s also worth mentioning that since the park is meant primarily for elementary school age kids, (everyone is surely still invited) it’s a very hands-on, interactive, play and dance style celebration every time we’re there.

Discount Ticket Information

I have great news! Admission to the LEGO Festival event is included with daily admission.

The best way to get the cheapest admission prices is with a Go City San Diego pass.

The pass will not only get you into LEGOLAND California for the LEGO Festival but also includes admission to more than 50 attractions throughout San Diego. Gear rentals like snorkel gear, kayaks and surfboard rentals are also part of the pass. Premium attractions included are the world-famous San Diego Zoo in Balboa Park, SeaWorld San Diego in Mission Bay Park and more than a dozen kid-friendly museums in Balboa Park and throughout the city.

It’s a bundle and save setup where if you plan on visiting two or more attractions or renting gear, you’ll pay less than the advertised prices. But I’d say have a look for yourself and make sure to use discount code GVSD5OFF for a little added savings at checkout!

What You Can Expect

Now that you know when and where the LEGO Festival will take place in 2025, plus how to get tickets, let’s have a look at the five themed zones that will make the event so exciting and unique!

Dance Zone

DJ GoodVibes will be on hand throwing down the family-friendly tunes in the Dance Zone. Your little ones can ‘build to the beat’ and groove to the music.

In the LEGO world, DJ GoodVibes is minifigure royalty so this is one zone you won’t want to miss.

Gaming Zone

My kid loves to play games and I bet your kids do too!

The Gaming Zone will feature yet to be announced gaming heroes. The funny thing here is that I surely will have no idea who these characters are, but I’m sure my kids will be able to educate me!

Creative Zone

Building LEGO houses, castles, airplanes, characters and really anything you can think of is all about being creative. If you’ve ever visited a LEGO store and seen a life sized Batman for example or a dinosaur coming out of the water, you quickly understand how creative you can be with LEGOs.

The Creative Zone will feature a series of masterclasses with Master Builder Alec as well as playathons and LEGO bricks.

Chill Out Zone

This might be the best zone for me! The Chill Out Zone is about taking it easy and relaxing around LEGO Botanicals while listening to stories.

There’s also a build along with Hopsy in this area.

Music Zone

The final zone of the springtime LEGO Festival is the Music Zone.

The zone is set to have a battle of the bands, LEGO guitars, dance and of course music to make you get up and move!

Creativity & Community

LEGOLAND’s Festivals often have a community piece and the LEGO Festival is no exception.

The Play Pact

The Play Pact to me is all about promising to not lose the joy of a child. It’s good to play more, laugh a lot and remember that through creativity and time together, we grow as people and families.

LEGOLAND wants us all to promise to build more, never stop exploring and remember to continue to play!

Giving Back for a Good Cause

The park is working with local charities to give kids who otherwise couldn’t attend a chance for a day filled with fun and adventure. Our kids are all fortunate in that they get to go to events like this where they can ‘create, imagine and play’.

But I for one want to teach them that every child should have a chance to play and it’s through events like this that I have the opportunity for them to learn and grow as young people giving back to the community.

A Family Event Worth Attending

As with all of LEGOLAND’s seasonal events, the LEGO Festival is sure to foster imagination, creativity and family togetherness.

Below are a few bonus tips from a longtime local that knows the best ways to enjoy LEGOLAND California and its seasonal events!

Stay Near LEGOLAND California

LEGOLAND has two themed hotels that are incredibly well located to the parks in Carlsbad and some of Todd’s kid’s favorite hotels in San Diego.

The LEGOLAND California Resort has themed rooms as well with bunk beds, a playground and buffet style restaurant. It’s been my experience that the staff knows how to make sure the kids are having fun and staying safe while doing it.

The LEGOLAND Castle Hotel offers themed rooms big enough for families, comfortable beds, a pool and characters for the kids. I can say that both of these hotels are right next to the parks and come highly recommended from our staff, especially if you have young kids.

LEGOLAND California’s Other Parks

LEGOLAND California Resort also features a waterpark and sea life park for a total of three parks!

LEGOLAND Water Park has seven slides, a sandy beach and over 10 million gallons of water.

SEA LIFE Aquarium at LEGOLAND offers hands-on learning opportunities to get up close to rays, sharks and more.

LEGOLAND California offers a pretty solid deal on a hopper ticket that includes the second day at SEA LIFE Aquarium at LEGOLAND for free!

There’s also a 2nd Day Free Ticket that includes SEA LIFE Aquarium at LEGOLAND and LEGOLAND Water Park.

Don’t Forget Your Go City San Diego Pass

Remember that the lowest admission prices to the park and for the event can be had with the purchase of a Go City San Diego pass.

The All-Inclusive Go City San Diego pass allows for unlimited attractions in a set number of days while the Explore Pass allows you to pick the number of attractions you want to see. The good news is that both passes include LEGOLAND California!
