THE LEGO MOVIE WORLD at LEGOLAND Florida Resort

3/29/2019

0 Comments

 

​We were invited to cover the grand opening of THE LEGO® MOVIE WORLD only at LEGOLAND® Florida Resort and we were given exclusive, press-only access to THE LEGO® MOVIE WORLD rides & attractions before they were open to the public. (Thank you LEGOLAND Florida Resort!)

Keep reading to find out all about THE LEGO® MOVIE WORLD, what we loved about it, view videos and pictures from our visit & much more!

THE LEGO® MOVIE WORLD officially opened to visitors on March 27th at LEGOLAND® Florida Resort, taking its guests on an exciting journey from the theater to the theme park!

THE LEGO® MOVIE WORLD was created in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products and LEGO®. This new expansion features three awesome new rides and numerous attractions, all of which were inspired by the characters and themes of the worldwide blockbuster THE LEGO® MOVIE™ and the sequel THE LEGO® MOVIE™ 2: The Second Part.

“We couldn’t be more excited to officially open THE LEGO MOVIE WORLD,” said Rex Jackson, general manager of LEGOLAND Florida Resort, “THE LEGO MOVIE WORLD is a key piece to our expansion and growth as we further cement ourselves as a multi-day destination.”

It's no wonder why THE LEGO MOVIE WORLD is the largest expansion in LEGOLAND Florida Resort history! It has an incredible energy and movie-quality feel. The moment you step inside, you are walking in downtown Bricksburg with its authentic cityscape, lovable LEGO® MOVIE™ characters, dining in Bricksburg's favorite restaurant Taco Everyday (because Tacos aren't just for Tuesdays!) and enjoying all kinds of fun surprises.

In addition to the excitement of feeling like a life-size LEGO minifigure in the immersive land of THE LEGO MOVIE WORLD, guests get to enjoy some of the world's most advanced ride technology with these three new rides: THE LEGO MOVIE Masters of Flight, Unikitty’s Disco Drop and Battle of Bricksburg.

“THE LEGO MOVIE WORLD is a game changer for LEGOLAND Florida Resort,” said Keith Carr, project director of Merlin Magic Making. “The immersion and theming that we’ve incorporated into the area is unlike anything we’ve ever done. Our guests will have so much fun on all three rides, but the land’s marquee ride, THE LEGO MOVIE Masters of Flight encompasses the only 180-degree turn on a flying theater in the world.”

Want to know what we thought of THE LEGO MOVIE WORLD's new rides and attractions? Keep reading below!

THE LEGO MOVIE Masters of Flight
Picture
Picture
Only at LEGOLAND Florida Resort can your kiddos play while they wait in line for a ride!
​About THE LEGO MOVIE Masters of Flight:

THE LEGO MOVIE Masters of Flight takes guests on a suspended ride aboard Emmet’s Triple Decker Couch surrounded by a full-dome virtual screen, giving the sensational feeling of flying through a world created completely from LEGO® bricks. 

​
There is a minimum 40" height requirement for this ride.

What we loved about THE LEGO MOVIE Masters of Flight:

​We loved THE LEGO MOVIE Masters of Flight so much we rode it three times! The ride takes you on a fun and exciting trip aboard Emmet's Triple Decker Couch. During the ride you really feel like you are flying on a LEGO adventure with Emmet, Wyldstyle and friends because there are lots of unexpected surprises that make the experience feel even more realistic.

(Also, we just LOVE that there are lots of Legos for the kiddos to play with while waiting in line for the ride!)
UniKitty's Disco Drop
Picture
Picture
About Unikitty’s Disco Drop:

Unikitty’s Disco Drop takes guests through a rainbow-filled journey based on Unikitty and her many moods. Once on the ride, guests will swoop to the tiptop of Cloud Cuckoo Land, then drop, spin and bounce back down to earth in sync with Unikitty’s wide range of emotions, creating a thrilling and frenzied experience. ​

​
There is a minimum 40" height requirement for this ride.

What we loved about Unikitty’s Disco Drop:

​Unikitty’s Disco Drop was so fun it had us laughing out loud! Our youngest son was nervous at first to give it a try but we were assured that all the rides at LEGOLAND Flordia Resort are kid-friendly and exciting - not scary. We are happy to report that our youngest was a big fan of Unikitty’s Disco Drop - so much so that he insisted we ride it twice! ​
Battle of Bricksburg
Picture
Get ready to get wet!
Picture
About Battle of Bricksburg:

At Battle of Bricksburg, the only water ride at LEGOLAND Florida Resort, riders are challenged to stop DUPLO aliens from invading and stealing LEGO bricks by spraying water at targets from their boats. The riders aren’t the only ones who can enjoy playing in the water, outside of the ride will be water cannons for guests to spray and help the riders save the day. 

​
There is a minimum 40" height requirement for this ride.

What we loved about the Battle of Bricksburg:

​The Battle of Bricksburg is one of our new favorite rides at LEGOLAND Florida Resort! We happily rode it several times, every time roaring with laughter together. In the description of the ride, it says "You may get wet" however be warned that you WILL absolutely get SOAKED! Each rider uses a water cannon to shoot at targets while "sailing" down the river and while you ride you are randomly sprayed by not only the invading DUPLO aliens but also by other guests with water cannons on the sidelines! After riding the Battle of Bricksburg a few times we were completely drenched... but of course we quickly dried off thanks to Florida's warm tropical temperatures!
Benny's Play-Ship
Picture
​About Benny's Play-Ship:

Benny’s spaceship has landed right in the middle of Bricksburg! Play on this space-themed playground structure and get ready for takeoff!


What we loved about Benny's Play-Ship:

​Benny's Play-Ship is conveniently located in the heart of THE LEGO MOVIE WORLD and visible from pretty much every area within. My husband and I grabbed lunch at Taco Everyday and relaxed at one of the outside tables while we watched our boys excitedly play on Benny's Play-Ship nearby. Benny's Play-Ship is very high so while it is not something we'd recommend for toddlers, we think it IS a great place to play for kids ages 3 and up!
Emmet's Super Suit
Picture
About Emmet’s Super Suit:

Stop by Emmet’s apartment and meet some of your favorite characters from THE LEGO® MOVIE™!


What we loved about Emmet’s Super Suit:

​The lines were not long and we got right in to meet Wyldstyle and General Mayhem and pose for pictures! The staff was super friendly and offered to take our picture for us so I wouldn't have to take it the usual way, selfie-style. My son was thrilled to meet 
Wyldstyle and General Mayhem face-to-face!
Taco Everyday
Picture
About Taco Everyday:

Don’t just taco on Tuesday, taco every day!


What we liked about Taco Everyday:

​We sampled the chicken tacos and I have to admit they were pretty good! My husband and I enjoyed them and were pleasantly surprised at how flavorful they were. (Our kiddos are 
very picky eaters so they didn't want to eat at Taco Everyday during our visit - however, if you have super picky eaters too, we recommend THE LEGO CITY BURGER KITCHEN!) ​

“Our goal is to put a smile on every child who walks into LEGOLAND Florida Resort. By the looks of excitement on the faces of our guests, I know we accomplished that today,” said Jackson.

That's not all! The fun can continue beyond the Park if you decide to stay in one of the new THE LEGO MOVIE themed rooms at the LEGOLAND Hotel! There rooms are designed with familiar scenery and beloved characters from The Lego Movie. Adults can relax in their own room inspired by Emmet's apartment and kids can dream of spaceships and adventures in the starts by staying in the separate children's room themed after Benny's spaceship!
