WINTER HAVEN, Fla. – Happy 10th birthday to Legoland Florida Resort.
The park held a “brick-tastic” party Friday morning that was complete with fanfare, fireworks and big announcements for 2022.
The theme park opened on Oct. 15, 2011, and took over Cypress Gardens, the Florida’s first major theme park.

On Friday, the park opened the all-new attraction the Legoland Story and the Legoland Coffee Company.
When guests step into the Legoland Story, they will be immersed in the unexpected origin story of everyone’s favorite brick.
Guests will learn about the theme park and how other Legoland Parks were built. The attraction will also feature Lego history, photo-worthy displays, including an original ride vehicle from Cypress Gardens’ Triple Hurricane attraction and an interactive Minifigure trading wall.
Located in the entryway to the Legoland Story attraction is the all-new Legoland Coffee Company.
The new spot is serving up chilled iced coffees and seasonal flavors.
Beginning next year, guests can expect to see some all-new passholder benefits which include new discounts and the new attraction, Pirate River Quest.
See a preview of the new attraction below.
“Set sail with a rowdy crew of LEGO pirates on Captain’s orders to explore the murky waters and retrieve the lost treasure, stolen by a troop of mischievous monkeys. Journey through the uncharted waters of the legendary Cypress Gardens and discover the secrets protecting its canals, as this all-new story unfolds brick by brick into a family-friendly treasure hunt,” Legoland described in a news release.
In addition to the new attraction, Legoland said guests can expect new enhancements to some of its popular events.
PirateFest Weekends, LEGO NINJAGO Days and the AWE-Summer celebration will be coming back.
