Legoland Florida will play host to Lego Festival for the second time this summer. The 29-day event will include activities in five zones that the Winter Haven theme park tout as “bigger, louder and more interactive” than last year’s inaugural fest.

“It’s designed as a vibrant multi-area experience around the park, where children lead the way through play – with dedicated zones, build activities, live moments and plenty of chances to meet many different Lego characters,” Brian Bacica, vice president of Legoland Florida Resort, said in a news release.
This year’s fest will incorporate the Music Zone (with “Battle of the Bands” show); Creative Zone with Creatureverse brick build tables and Master Model Builder sessions; Chill Out Zone, a secret garden designed for a peaceful, plant-filled escape featuring Lego Botanicals and a new bug build plus “Playtime with Hopsy” stage show; Thrill Zone, a sports-themed area; and Play Zone, which Legoland calls the “ultimate gaming fan zone.”
Among the characters to be seen in zones will be Lego Panda, Lego Peacock, Melody Raye and Lyric Santos and “selfie-friendly” Lego figures.

Visitors also can participate in the 3 Build Challenge, collecting stamps on the Lego Festival map for each zone. Folks that finish three or more exclusive festival brick-building activities, can pick up 3‑in‑1 Lego Creator gift at the park.
Lego Festival, included with regular Legoland Florida admission, runs from July 20 through Aug. 16. The event will also be available at Legoland California, Legoland New York, Legoland Windsor and Legoland Deutschland.
