Galacticoaster: Take Your Space Adventure to the Next Level

Finished the Space Word Search? Take the adventure from the page to the park with Galacticoaster, the all new indoor family coaster at LEGOLAND® Florida Resort.

Galacticoaster takes families on a customizable LEGO® space adventure that combines storytelling, interactive technology and family friendly thrills. Before boarding, recruits enter the Briefing Room and meet Chief Engineer Biff Dipper, who prepares them for their mission. Riders then customize their own LEGO spacecraft using interactive touchscreens, choosing from different nose, tail, wing and special feature designs.

With more than 625 possible spacecraft combinations, every mission can be a little different. The spacecraft created during the customization experience is then brought into the ride through digital technology as families blast off into a LEGO® space adventure.

During the ride, families travel through an intergalactic LEGO® solar system featuring synchronized lighting, special effects and appearances from classic LEGO Space characters. Galacticoaster reaches speeds of up to 40 mph and offers approximately 10 minutes of entertainment from the pre show through the ride experience.
