OK, perhaps "a step inside" LEGOLAND wasn't the best wording, as it could be reminiscent of the pain you feel when you step barefoot on a rogue LEGO. Sorry, Mommy Frog! Anyway, I digress ... Tad here, reporting on all of this holiday season's most fun events! The Frog Family visited for the Holidays at LEGOLAND, and I'm hoppy to share all of the deets with you folks.
Hop To
First, let's cover the basics:
Holidays at LEGOLAND Overview
Holidays at LEGOLAND take place on select nights in December. In 2025, these dates include Dec. 6, 13, 20 and 24-31. Moreover, don't worry ... the holiday fun won't interrupt your usual LEGOLAND fun. The festivities are included with park admission (and during normal hours). Instead, these are just little seasonal bonuses throughout the park for families to enjoy. As a result, there are tons of fun activities to keep tadpoles even busier than usual at one of our favorite kid-centric parks.
Holidays at LEGOLAND Florida Resort Activities
North Pole Postal Service
To start, head to the North Pole Postal Service in Fun Town and share your Christmas wish with LEGO Santa. Afterward, watch your letter arrive at the North Pole!
Holly Hype Dance Party
Sing and dance with LEGO Reindeer Girl at the Holly Hype Dance Party outside the LEGOLAND Fun Town Theater. This interactive dance party is great for frogs of all ages.
Santa's Toy Build
LEGO Santa needs to fill his bag with toys — and he needs your help! Outside of the Pizza Pasta Buffet, let your imagination soar as you build your bricks for LEGO Santa!
Festival of Flurries
Lily loves this seasonal show, and it's returning again for 2025! The Festival of Flurries, over at Kingdoms Stage, celebrates all things snow! After celebrating this frozen favorite, guests can then meet LEGO Snowman. (Deets on where to meet him and when below).
LEGO Holiday Character Experiences
Take elfies with LEGO Santa, LEGO Gingerbread Man, LEGO Nutcracker, LEGO Snowman and more merry characters this winter season! Last year, LEGOLAND introduced a new seasonal character, Ivy — a holiday elf!
Last year, the Gingerbread Man met for 20 minutes at select times per day outside of the LEGOLAND Fun Town Theater. We also found LEGO Santa and his elves at Heartlake Hall at 11:30 am, 12:30 pm, 1:30 pm, 3:30 pm, 4:30 pm and 5:30 pm. LEGO Snowman greeted guests at the Kingdoms Stage at 11:45 am, 1 pm and 5:30 pm. And, LEGO Nutcracker met guests near DUPLO Valley at 11:30 am, 12:30 pm, 1:30 pm, 3:30 pm, 4:30 pm and 5:30 pm. Download the LEGOLAND Florida app to check times.
Sleigh Competition Build
Inside LEGO Kingdoms, you can create your very own sleigh designs for Santa. Let your imagination fly just like his reindeer! You can even enter to win a grand prize!
Holiday Traditions Scavenger Hunt
Take on the challenge of finding all the festival holiday icons in DUPLO Valley and win a prize! Undoubtedly, there's nothing like a scavenger hunt to scratch that competitive itch! (You're on Daddy Frog!)
Bricktastic LEGO Christmas Tree
The Bricktastic LEGO tree is awesome! Over 30 feet tall, it features nearly 365,000 LEGO and DUPLO bricks that's as festive as it is creative. Furthermore, Mommy Frog loves the group photos taken in front of the tree and the life-sized LEGO reindeer and sleigh. Lily loves the giant LEGO brick wreath, too. In fact, it's our family Christmas card this year!
Holiday Treats
Holiday treats also get you in the Christmas spirit! There are many holly-jolly-themed foods and drinks all around the park! For instance, last year's treats included the Merry Maple Apple Fries, the Season's Greetings Swirl ice cream cone and the Christmas Crepe (Mommy Frog loved those!)
Kids' New Year's Eve
On Dec. 31, frogs can ring in the new year with rides, activities and more merry fun. The best part? Tadpoles can return to the hotel without any FOMO since LEGOLAND Florida ignites the sky over Lake Eloise with an early, kid-friendly LEGO bricks fireworks display. As such, Lily doesn't have to miss her bedtime to enjoy this colorful New Year's tradition!
There's also a DJ dance party and other exclusive entertainment to enjoy! 2026 here we come!
Holidays at LEGOLAND Tips
This festive fun is pretty low-key and easy to navigate — which is exactly why we LOVE it — so there's no need for too many tips here. Just keep it simple!
- Firstly, arrive early! Hop on any high-priority rides (with potentially long lines later) before the rest of the crowds arrive. Then, focus on the holiday cheer.
- Be prepared for any weather. The forecast can flip within hours! For this reason, be sure to bring sweatshirts (or tank tops!) just in case. Average temperatures in Florida usually range from 50 to 70 degrees F.
- Set a budget. This is a year-round rule for us at LEGOLAND ... my fault!
- Let the tadpoles play. There are SO many activities set up for them around LEGOLAND to help them get creative AND festive. The calm environment and low crowds (versus some other parks) allow parents to really enjoy the moment.
- Finally, take lots of pictures! Fun characters and festive photo-ops are holiday card magic.
In conclusion, it's ALWAYS a fun time at LEGOLAND Florida Resort, and especially with Holidays at LEGOLAND taking place. Moreover, we toadally recommend hopping by if you're in the area for the holidays. And don't forget to hop on our discounted tickets before heading to the park!
