** PLEASE LIKE & SHARE OUR REVIEWS ** Felt it necessary to create a massive review of this space because we went not expecting much. We were surprised at how huge this facility is and with all the various centers, playgrounds, & activities they had. *** If you have a GO CITY PASS, skip the kiosks and go straight to the elevators. Your GO City Pass should include the lanyard Activity Pack. If they do not give one to you, show them the GO City info. *** Def : 1. See a 4-D at the theater, 2. Rob a bank (not a real one), 3. Laser Game Ride 4. Building workshop class All the rest is a huge free for all! We visited with our city pass and were given lanyards to unwrap and collect press stamps at each section. One of the stamps in Build a Duck didn't work but all the rest did. They have a pressed penny machine for $1 each. There are photo ops ALL THROUGHOUT. The staff handed us a photo card and we were able to text our pics to each other to download. Each section also has a qr scan that provides a fun photo backdrop as well. We had so much fun! There are hand sanitizers throughout, restrooms, cafe (very reasonably priced) & the staff was so amazing! There are a few exhibits that glow after so many minutes because the lights dim. The ride near the entrance keeps a score and can sit 6 people (4 comfortably). It created a fun family competition. Could easily spend 3-5 hours here. There is an option to pay $30 extra to become an annual member and with that comes added perks like discounts on food purchases. About every 30 minutes there will be a new 4D movie in the cinema. Each hour or so, they have a lego building class workshop where kids learn to build some cute little projects. Just overall a wonderful experience! Highly, highly recommend! Wish we had one of these in Florida.

Another great experience at a LEGO owner property! Friendly staff and clean facilities. They even squeezed a little ride and a 4D theater into the discovery center as well. There is a little cafe, a place for toddlers, family bathrooms, and a mother's room. Lots of seating for adults and room for strollers. Kids can build and race all sorts of vehicles. They have a creative workshop where you an meet Lego masters as well!

Took my 2, 4, and 6-year-olds to LEGOLAND Discovery Center for a fun afternoon, and we had a fantastic time! The kids loved building, playing, and exploring. We rode the train and watched the 4D movie, there were so many interactive experiences that kept everyone engaged. Everything was clean, especially the bathrooms, which was a big plus. Highly recommend for families, and we’ll definitely be back! 😊

Great place for kids. If you’re little One enjoys building with Legos then they’re in for a treat. And a pretty cool jungle/gym/maze/playhouse for those of us who enjoy a little more action. Lego builds are impressive, but don’t expect the Mona Lisa.
