Guests are invited to fasten their seatbelts and make a pit stop at LEGOLAND\u00ae Florida Resort this summer to experience the limited-time Thrill Zone with LEGO\u00ae F1\u00ae during LEGO\u00ae Festival 2026<\/strong>
\u00a0

LEGO Festival runs from July 20 through August 16, 2026, and features five interactive zones: Music, Creative, and Chill-Out Zones alongside the brand-new Thrill and Play Zones<\/strong>\u00a0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

LEGO Festival 2026 hits top speed as LEGOLAND\u00ae Florida Resort today reveals LEGO\u00ae F1\u00ae will headline the Thrill Zone, becoming the first major IP partner to be announced for this year\u2019s festival lineup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ultimate celebration of play, LEGO Festival is built for kids to take the lead and designed to spark creativity, fuel imaginations and bring families together through interactive experiences. Taking center stage in the new Thrill Zone, the LEGO\u00ae F1\u00ae experience will bring the buzz of a F1\u00ae Race Day to life with a full-throttle lineup of high-energy moments, hands-on racing builds, family pit crew challenges and surprise character appearances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Families will race against the clock to complete the fastest LEGO\u00ae F1\u00ae pit stop tire change in the Brick Stop Challenge, <\/em>working together to test their teamwork as an official pit crew around a LEGO\u00ae F1\u00ae car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shifting gears and bringing a whole new vibe to the pit lane is the Pit Lane Hype Show<\/em>. This live, beat-driven drum and percussion experience is performed using only tools and snapping bricks, capturing the pulse of a race weekend and creating an unmissable family dance-along moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those who want to raise the competitive stakes, there\u2019s also a chance to become race engineers for the day. Kids and grown-ups alike can design, build and race their own LEGO\u00ae F1\u00ae brick vehicles, testing ideas to see if they can find that extra bit of speed for race day victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c<\/em>LEGO Festival is built for kids and powered by play. It\u2019s a limited-time experience where creativity takes the lead and imaginations run wild,\u201d said Brian Bacica, Vice President, LEGOLAND Florida Resort. \u201cWith <\/em>LEGO\u00ae F1<\/em>\u00aeheadlining our new Thrill Zone, families can drive into the excitement of race day through this first-of-its-kind pit stop challenge. It\u2019s fast, colorful and packed with feel-good fun for everyone from start to finish.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Thrill Zone also shines a spotlight on F1\u00ae ACADEMY\"Badge, a junior racing championship created to inspire the next generation of female talent, helping more girls see themselves in the world of motorsports and connect with F1\u00ae in a meaningful and empowering way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And because no race day is complete without a photo finish, guests will also have plenty of opportunities to capture picture-perfect moments throughout their day. From meeting LEGO pit crew characters, to stepping up for a winner\u2019s photo, everyone can celebrate like champions and take home a memory worthy of the checkered flag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Running from July 20 to August 16, 2026, LEGO Festival will transform LEGOLAND\u00ae Florida Resort into a full-scale celebration of imagination across five interactive zones: Music, Creative, Chill-Out, and the brand-new Thrill and Play Zones.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
