(12/13/2024) Long before it was known as Legoland Florida, the theme park site in Winter Haven first opened as a very different pack way back in 1936. Back then there were no rides based on plastic toys, but instead it was a park based on the theme of natural botanica, known as Cypress Gardens.
Instead of rides, the big thrill draw for the park was a large scale Water Ski show that became so popular the park also became known as the “Water Ski Capital of World” for a time. Over the years the park passed through the hands of a few different owners who had some different visions and plans for the property, and even shut down a few times towards the end, once due to hurricane damage and a few mini-closures in late 2008 and late 2009 due to financial issues.
However, In January 2010, Merlin Entertainment bought Cypress Gardens with the vision of transforming the property and reopening it as Legoland Florida in October 2011. Legoland Florida would offer something no other Legoland park had, a Water Ski show. Unfortunately, all good things must eventually come to an end, and the local news has reported that Legoland Florida will be closing down the famous water ski show for good at the end of the year. Your last day to see the current show, “Brickbeard’s Watersports Stunt Show” will be on December 30, 2024.
2025 - SEA LIFE Aquarium - Under Construction - Construction on the new aquarium attraction is well under way, but it looks like a late start will push the opening back from late 2024 to perhaps early to mid 2025.
(11/10/2023) According to a post on our social media, the new Sea Life Aquarium coming to Legoland Florida will be located just inside the main park, “right after the turnstiles and before the coffee shop”. Construction walls are already in place.
(11/9/2023) Legoland Florida announced some new surprises are on the way for the 2024 season. This will include the introduction of a new SEA LIFE branded aquarium that will open in Fall 2024 at the Legoland Florida Resort.
2026 - New Galaxy / Lego Space Coaster? - Rumor - (12/17/2024) Is a new Lego Space themed indoor coaster in the works for Legoland Florida? According to a post from Zooder Loopers, the steel structure for a large new building is currently rising at the park, which can be seen poking up from behind the Driving School attraction, on the site of the former Flying School coaster that closed for good in 2023.
This would make sense, as a Lego Galaxy themed area, complete with several new rides and a coaster, is supposed to be coming to Legoland California in 2025.
