LEGOLAND® California Admission Tickets

I have a new outlook on Legoland. My expectations have been highly exceeded. Definitely recommend staying at the Legoland hotel. We want to try all themes and the castle hotel to experience all Legoland has to offer.

App is very convenient, great for kids! The all day unlimited digital photos were a great idea as well. Rides were great for kids

We are a family with a special needs child and we were just overwhelmed by the kindness and knowledgeable assistance we recieved. We started with guest services and they provided us with a special reservation assistance pass that for the most part limited the amount of wait times we had for rides. The people working the rides were gracious and knowledgeable and worked well with our son, despite his inability to understand at times. We stayed at the castle hotel which was far more laid back with not as many stimulating things at the legoland hotel which was perfect for our son. There wasn't much of a check in process or at least an email that explained that you should make a reservation for breakfast the night before and how the scavenger hunt worked. Even with these drawbacks it was an amazing experience. The food at the Dragon's Den restaurant was far more than expected and was 5 stars.

We purchased the vacation package to celebrate our two children’s birthdays. We had an amazing time throughout our visit. The kids loved the experience and the treasure hunt . We also enjoyed pool and their dance party every evening. It is absolutely amazing, especially if you have a child that needs breaks throughout the day. On the first day, we were able to take a break and go back to a hotel room to give our son some Time to regroup. The second day was more successful and we have lots of fun. We use the provided accommodation for my son and it made the process much better for him, I thought he wouldn’t be able to enjoy because of his situation but all of the accommodations they have from signs to assisting line times was amazing. He will definitely go back!

Tips for family :
Take advantage of the morning breakfast. Make sure you make a reservation make the cost much better.

If you’re purchasing legos do so early enough or in the evening to allow your child to build.

For lunch & dinner if you are not in the park, have your children share, the portions are fairly large

Swimming pool provide life jacket if your child needs them.

There autism accommodation are amazing! Use them if you feel your child needs them. Also recommend noise cancellation headphones.

This park is fun for my grandkids/young children but there weren’t any rides or activities that an adult would go for. There are lots of adults who build Legos so I expected more for adults, too. I was truly impressed by the food at the Ramen place. It was healthy, delicious, and reasonably priced. The estimated wait times for rides on the app were incorrect. Not like Disney. You also had to be on your phone to check wait times and locations for rides. Signage would be better so we can get off our phones. I think it was overpriced for the limited experience, but did enjoy the day. The boat ride through impressive Lego structures was fun. The roller coasters were ok, but not any better than a State Fair.

Great experience. All staff are friendly. Lines minimal to average wait times. Appreciated the shaded coverings in wait areas and benches throughout the park. We loved the many large themed playgrounds where kids can free play without having to wait in line for fun. Brilliantly designed ride wait lines with center shaded Lego build area for kids to keep themselves entertained while parents wait in line. Appreciated the CVS pharmacy vending machines for necessary items of all types (over the counter medications, baby items, feminine products, sunscreen, etc.) you may find yourself in need of. There are little thoughtful touches throughout the park that make for a pleasant experience with lots of cute and free photo ops for family memories. Food pricing is typically expensive, but it was actually enjoyable to eat. Overall, a delightful experience.

Everything was amazing, we do wish the water park was open. Rollercoasters were amazing! Legoland can go without all the vendors/games, where prizes were won by throwing a ball into a target, for example, it made Legoland feel 'cheap' and too much like a Carnival. The kids love getting to build with legos there. We loved all the additions from the Lego movie.

Our family of 6: grandparents, parents and 2 grandchildren - 3 and 1.5 - visited Legoland Monday April 21. While Legoland proved to be quite fun for the grandchildren, it lacked so much in so many ways and I might go back, but probably not. It did not begin to compare with San Diego Zoo or Safari Zoo or a Disney experience (or Universal, but it is really targeted for older children and adults so probably cannot be compared).
First, getting tickets was a nightmare. It is so confusing and they don't make it easy to purchase. My credit card kept getting refused for no reason except an opaque "security" problem. Then my techno-capable daughter-in-law tried and got the same message. She soon looked at her bank statement and saw 2 charges for the ticket order! We looked at our statement and had 6! orders for tickets at over $560 per order. I was not amused and it took a couple of hours to straighten out with our bank and Legoland. (It proved very difficult to finally get a live person - they don't publish a phone number that gets you a human, and I had to get to them through one of the hotels.)
Apparently this happens a lot and they apologized, but did not offer any compensation for the many hours lost trying to buy tickets. (The "security" issue was never explained. And we had no trouble with our card anywhere else in the whole of California.)
Opening hours is also very confusing. 9 am. It turns out that is for Legoland hotel guests. You can get in before, but can only go so far (maybe 100 yards) to get past the other gate that opens at 10 am. They do this so you will get there early and use the "extra" time shopping in the nearby stores.
Despite spending many hours before our visit looking at tips on how to efficiently tour Legoland with a 3 year old and a 18 month baby, it was still very confusing to navigate the park. The signage is essentially non existent. The printed map (and digital map) is incomprehensible. There are no human beings around to help direct you. There was a kiosk just outside the Cruise ride called "visitor experience" or something but the staff there could not give us an easy to follow map or route for "toddler-friendly" attractions. And the rides themselves don't easily tell you whom they cater to: under 3, under 36 inches etc. Only if you get up really close might you find a bit of information. And using a phone app doesn't help much. You can get a list for toddler rides, but the list doesn't easily describe the ride (which is on another site/link), or tell you where it is. Or where it is in relation to where you are.
While Legoland aggressively discourages people from bringing a picnic lunch, we absolutely hate fast food preferring healthy food like fruit, cut up veggie sticks, hummus, cold roasted meat, etc. At one place we were close to a food concession, the only food available was pizza!!!! Legoland describes that as healthy. I guess it depends on your definition of healthy. All other amusement parks and zoos we have been to (and we've been to many), have designated picnic areas for people like us and I don't think it affects their bottom line very much. We are definitely in the minority in terms of our food choices. They would make up the loss from food purchases by us with future ticket sales if they smartened up about picnic lunches.
The day we went (Easter Monday) wasn't horribly busy, but busy enough. I would not want to go when the park is busy. The Explorer River Quest in Dino land was almost a walk on, but on a busy day, the snaking lineup would be many hours long. The longest wait was 40 minutes for the lame "train" ride in Duplo Play town called the aggrandizing name Legoland Express. Seriously, 40 minutes. Our Granddaughter (aged 3) let others go in front of her so she could be in the first train car and therefore be the engineer, so she enjoyed it but really a 40 min wait for really nothing. They only let about 8 adults plus kids on the train for each cohort. I shudder to think how long the wait would be if it were a busy day.
Surprisingly Miniland was a huge hit, even for our 3 year old. By that time the 18 month baby was sleeping. I would go back just for that attraction.
All in all, I was quite disappointed with Legoland especially after the accolades from other parents with similarly aged kids. I chalk it up to those people being paid by Legoland for a positive review, or brain washing.

Legoland was Amazing my kids loved it . The Castel Hotel was so nice great staff , the food was great will be back again Thank you!!!!

Everything is awesome 🎶 The grownups and the little ones enjoyed. Friendly staff smiled all the time. Will visit again.

We booked the Ultimate VIP Experience for my soon to be 6 year old’s birthday and it was magical! We were paired with Susan as our guide and she was absolutely phenomenal and such a pleasure for my family to work with. She thoughtfully planned out our day and even found moments for me to escape with my 5 year old to ride rides that she knew my 3 year old couldn’t to avoid him from getting upset. She fetched water, snacks and coffee for us while we were riding and had them waiting for us when we got off of rides. She was so kind with my 3 kids and kept my ride fearing husband company while I rode rides with my children. And with the VIP experience, you do not wait in line and once you’re on rides, you have the option to stay seated to ride twice in a row if you want. We will definitely be booking the VIP experience again and will without a doubt request Susan if she’s available!

It’s a good attraction if you or your kids like legos , we came for our son 8th birthday he likes legos and he asked for it instead of a party, so if that’s your case then yes it is a go!
We stayed at the castle hotel and we loved it just next to Legoland main door, food was delicious, breakfast included.
Things didn’t like, at the park there are 2-3 attractions the employees I’m assuming following instructions don’t let you take photos of the photos they took off you because they want you to buy it, but then the rest of attractions nobody cares and nobody even there if you want to take the photos??? They have the app for the photos where you can share for your photo if you the photo ID # then you can see it on your phone and decide if you want to buy it later on, soooo what’s the point of not letting you take the photos??? So rude and none sense whoever is in charge of that should be fired!!!
And besides that there are some parts of park that seems abandoned????
To eat in the park we really like the pizza pasta buffet really good taste and price!
Waiting lines on 2-3 attractions are horrible like an 1 hr and it wasn’t busy, anyway I don’t think is worth it to pay $135 to save 90% of time, we did the whole park with regular tick it was about time with family?

Legoland CA is our fav place period! It’s our happy place and we come as often as we can, several times a year! This is a perfect location where the weather is almost always great! The Legoland hotel on prem makes it super convenient! Legoland is great for all ages and we are always planning for the next visit! We just can’t get enough!

Lego Education Playmakers was so much fun and Corin was so great with my kids and took time to discuss Lego shows and characters.

We usually go to Legoland, Florida, every year, so this was our first time at Legoland, California. I wasn't impressed at all. The lines were long, and some of the staff were inattentive. It was really crowded. I didn't get this one guy's name, but he was at the lazy river standing by. He wasn't working, but he came over to yell at my son. The attendants and I were talking, and my autistic son was playing with the Legos that were on the ground. He came over, yelling to leave them alone and to move on. I had to let him know that we were talking and giving my other kids instructions. He was next, and what my son was doing wasn't bothering anyone. This really pissed me off. Why are you worrying about something that has nothing to do with you? My son was quietly playing alone until we were done. Train your staff to do better and to not assume that all kids are verbal.

My kids had a wonderful time but I was not pleased with the app and all the features it could have. I would have liked to be able to mobile order food rather than wait in line. I also believe there needs to be more healthier options in the park, it was difficult to find food to eat. Overall, I enjoyed everyone’s enthusiasm at the park and it was really clean for how busy it was.

Sign up for a build! The master builders are enlightening/empowering. Michael P in VIP, you're golden man!! AMAZING!!
