Useful Information for Pre-planning Your Legoland California Vacation

There are four Legoland parks in the world and Legoland California is the only one in the U.S. The parks are built and designed for kids between the ages of 2 and 12 and their parents. At Legoland California there are more than 50 exciting rides, 9 Lego themed areas with each having their own attractions and interactive shows and several Lego themed shops and restaurants. The landscaping at Legoland is spectacular with specimens of trees and plant life from all over the world. There are over 1,000 bonsai trees alone! Legoland employs a team of professional Lego Master Model Builders to design, build, and maintain the over 15,000, small to very large, Lego models on display.

Legoland California is open year around, 7days a week from the last week of May thru June, July and August. During the school year the park is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays except most school holidays. These school holidays are Thanksgiving (the last week of November) and Christmas (the last 2 weeks of December) as well as spring and fall breaks. The gates open at 10:00AM and the park closes anywhere from 5:00PM in the winter months to 8:00PM during the last 2 weeks of May and the months of June, July, and August. These times may vary somewhat so it would be a good idea to consult the Legoland California website or the San Diego Convention and Visitors Bureau when planning your trip.

When paying to enter the park at the gate one day tickets are $62 for adults and for children ages 3 to 12 and seniors over 60 the price is $52. A 2 day pass is a little better deal at $77 for adults and $65 for children and seniors. There's never a charge for children 2 and under. For those who live in the area or just plan to visit several times a year there are various economical membership programs that include unlimited yearly admission. Legoland and Sea Life Aquarium combo tickets are also available. One day tickets for Sea Life Aquarium only are available at Resort ticket booths and cost $11.95 for children, $15.95 for seniors and $18.95 for adults.

Booking your hotel accommodations at Legoland California Resort, online and in advance, is always a smart move. Not only will you not have to worry about where to stay when you get there, you will probably enjoy considerable savings as well.
