When is Brick-or-Treat at LEGOLAND?

Brick-or-Treat is celebrated on Saturdays and Sundays September 24-October 30, 2022. While the event begins when the park opens at 10am, we found that most of the trick-or-treating candy stations opened at about 1pm/1:30pm, so there’s no rush to get there right at 10am.

However, arriving early will give you more time to visit with more characters and experience the live shows, along with the rides you get to experience everyday at LEGOLAND Florida.

Is Brick-or-Treat included with admission?

YES! Brick-or-Treat is included with admission to the park, so there’s no extra fee.

How much are LEGOLAND Florida tickets?

Single day tickets start at $84.99 per person, but also keep in mind you will also need to pay for parking which is why we love the annual pass option. If you think you are going to go more than a few times, the annual passes are your best option. We love going to LEGOLAND for just the water park on super hot days!

The Awesome Pass is $179.99 if paid in full or you can opt for monthly payments of $10.83 per month after a down payment of $49.99.

Can kids wear a costume to Brick-or-Treat?

Yes!! Kids can absolutely wear a costume, in fact it’s encouraged. Just make sure they’ll be comfortable since it can get hot –we live in Florida, after all.

What to expect at Brick-or-Treat this year.

This year, the LEGO Monsters have taken over and that’s where the inspiration of this year’s theme: Brick-or-Treat presents Monster Party!

There are six themed areas throughout the park, each with its own characters meet and greets, special events, specialty treats and candy stations. When you arrive at the park on event day, be sure to pick up an event booklet which will walk you through each area with a cute map.

This part of our review is the most important because we’re sharing the times and length of each event which will be super helpful for you as you plan out your day. Knowing these schedules ahead of time will make your day soooo much easier!

What else is there to do at LEGOLAND Florida?

While you’re walking around the themed areas of Brick-or-Treat, be on the look out for Halloween themed decor, especially over at MINILAND USA!

There are a ton of rides at LEGOLAND Florida, in fact you probably won’t get to them all in one visit, which is why the annual pass is such a great option. There are 44 different rides and attractions to experience at LEGOLAND Florida. We also love that there are several indoor play spaces as well to cool down or seek shelter from the rain.

Also, the world’s FIRST Peppa Pig Theme Park opened up next door earlier this year. It is a separate park and requires a separate admission, but you can purchase dual park tickets and annual passes.

Where is there to stay at LEGOLAND Florida?

There several hotels in the Winter Haven area, however LEGOLAND has THREE LEGO themed hotels for you too choose from: The LEGOLAND Hotel, Pirate Island Hotel and LEGOLAND Beach Retreat.

It can be a splurge to book a room on some nights, so plan ahead if you can to secure the best deals. LEGOLAND is also offering a Brick-or-Treat Hotel and Ticket package starting at $189 per person.

What else is there to do near LEGOLAND Florida and Peppa Pig Theme Park?

The parks are about a half hour drive from the gorgeous Bok Tower Gardens which has a cute children’s play area along with cafes and plenty of areas to relax and enjoy the beauty of the land.

If you really want to go all out on this family vacation, you can also book an overnight stay for a dude ranch glamping experience at Westgate River Ranch and Rodeowhich is about an hour away when you factor in traffic.
