Legoland Announces Opening Date for New Galacticoaster Attraction

Legoland California to Launch Exciting New "Lego Galaxy" Land in 2026

Legoland California Resort is set to unveil its highly-anticipated Lego Galaxy land on March 6, 2026. This new space-themed area will feature a host of imaginative attractions, including the park’s first indoor roller coaster, the Galacticoaster. Riders will be thrilled by this ART Engineering launch coaster, which boasts a unique digital design feature allowing participants to select from an impressive 625 design combinations for their ride vehicles. The allure of Lego Galaxy isn’t limited to just California; plans for a similar attraction are also in place for Legoland Florida, though the exact opening date for that park remains unannounced.

Kurt Stocks, President of Legoland California Resort, expressed excitement about the new addition, stating, "Amid the holiday cheer, we were ‘over the moon’ to unveil details about our new land."
