Memorial Day Weekend Dates, Opening Hours & Best Times to Visit

Memorial Day Weekend 2026 runs from Saturday May 23rd to Monday May 25th LEGOLAND Florida is open across all three days from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

  • Arrive at opening – the most popular rides fill up fast on long weekends. Being at the gates early is the single best move you can make.
  • Save the water park for after lunch – ride the big attractions in the morning, then let the kids splash their way through the afternoon when it’s hottest.
  • Saturday is the busiest day – if you have flexibility, Sunday or Monday mornings tend to be a little calmer. Either way, an early start wins.

Plan Your Memorial Day Weekend Itinerary

Not sure where to start? Here’s a suggested day that works brilliantly for families with mixed ages, from toddlers preparing for their first ride to older kids ready for bigger adventures.

Morning: Rides & Attractions

  1. Head straight for LEGO Galaxy before the lines build. Home to the all-new Galacticoaster, this indoor coaster is perfect for the whole family! Board your own customizable LEGO spacecraft and launch into an interstellar mission!
  2. Then, visit LEGO City, where even the youngest adventurers can find their footing.

Mid-Morning: Water Park & Lunch

Once mid-morning rolls around, dive over to the LEGOLAND Water Park.

  1. Race down the slides, float along the Build-A-Raft Lazy River, and let the little ones run loose in DUPLO® Splash Safari.
  2. Grab lunch at Beach-n-Brick Grill before heading back into the park recharged and ready for round two.

Afternoon: Shows & Family Fun

Afternoons are prime time for the kind of experiences you can’t rush.

  1. Check the daily entertainment schedule on our LEGOLAND Florida Mobile App for 4D shows and meet & greets.
  2. Make your way over to LEGO NINJAGO The Ride. This interactive battle ride is one of the park’s most popular, and for good reason. Kids use their ninja moves to blast enemies on screen, racking up points as they go.
  3.  Wrap up the day at MINILAND USA, where iconic American landmarks are recreated entirely in LEGO bricks. Kids will spend longer there than you expect.
