LEGOLAND????? Florida, opening 15TH October 2011, is a 150-acre family theme park located in Winter Haven. The site has been bought by Merlin but was better known as Cypress Gardens Adventure Park up until 2008. The park is mainly based at a 2 to 12 age range and boasts over 50 rides and attractions for all the familly to enjoy.


They will be opening with 4 coasters whch are:

  • The Dragon ?????? An indoor/outdoor steel roller coaster that features a spirited and humorous view of life behind the scenes within the enchanted LEGOLAND Castle.

  • LEGO TECHNIC????? Test Track ?????? Brave guests feel the power of acceleration, braking and maneuverability as they race a life-size LEGO TECHNIC vehicle along a wild roller coaster track.

  • Coastersaurus ?????? This junior coaster reaches curves and dips in and around a prehistoric jungle of animated and life-sized LEGO brick dinosaurs.

  • Flight School ?????? An inverted steel coaster that lets kids feel the thrill of flight.



Miniland USA, the heart of every LEGOLAND Park, will be home to seven specially themed areas ?????? Washington, D.C., New York City, Las Vegas, Kennedy Space Center, Daytona and of course Florida.

  • Florida encompasses the entire state from Mallory Square in Key West to Bok Tower in Central Florida and antebellum mansions in the Panhandle. Miniland Florida also includes an expanded area for Kennedy Space Center and an interactive Daytona racing experience where guests can race LEGO brick cars.

  • Las Vegas features the world-famous Strip including the Luxor Las Vegas, New York, New York Hotel and Casino, Excalibur, Mirage, Treasure Island, Tropicana, MGM Grand, Venetian, Stratosphere tower and two iconic structures of Paris Las Vegas: the balloon sign and Eiffel Tower. ??????The Strip?????? at LEGOLAND also features a miniature wedding chapel, monorails and real life sounds recorded in Las Vegas. The architectural landmark is built out of more than two million bricks and represents more than sixteen-thousand hours of creative artistry.

  • Washington, D.C. sports faithful recreations of the White House, Capitol Building, Smithsonian, Washington and Jefferson monuments and parts of Georgetown. An animated marching band parades in front of the Capitol and tiny cherry trees blossom every spring.

  • New York City features the Freedom Tower years before its completion in the Big Apple. Tiny jets of water shoot up from the fountain in Rockefeller Plaza, while an army of animated yellow taxicabs prowl the streets of Times Square. The Statue of Liberty, a cutaway view of Grand Central Station, The Empire State Building, The Guggenheim Museum and the Bronx Zoo are just a few of the recognizable landmarks.

  • A Pirate themed section hosts a full-on swashbuckling pirate adventure as two opposing pirate ships and their ??????mates?????? battle it out upon the high seas.
