Now open for previews ahead of its launch tomorrow, the new Legoland New York Resort is the brand’s third-largest park consists of seven separate themed sections.
Following finalisation of the seventh and final land, ‘LEGO Pirate’, the park is set to fully open to guests on 9 July. A soft opening with limited guest capacity began in late May while some of the final work was being completed on some rides and attractions, according to Travel Awaits.
The park had originally been scheduled to open more than a year ago, on 4 July 2020, but the Covid-19 pandemic threw a major monkey wrench into those plans. The six lands that are currently open for previews are Brick Street, Bricktopia, Miniland, LEGO City, LEGO Castle and LEGO Ninjago World.
Some of Legoland New York’s rides and attractions will mirror those found at Legoland California and Legoland Florida, the brand’s other two existing US theme parks, including a version of The Dragon roller coaster and rides like Anchor’s Away!, Splash Battle, DJ’s Dizzy Disco Spin, Merlin’s Flying Machines, LEGO NINJAGO The Ride and more.
