PEACE OF MIND POLICY FOR NEW LEGOLAND® FLORIDA BOOKINGS & ANNUAL PASS PURCHASES
LEGOLAND Florida Resort is built for kids. Our vacations, including LEGOLAND theme park, water park and on-site hotels, are built for families. That means we are in the business of making it as easy as possible for you to build your memories with us. For that reason, we have launched our “Peace of Mind Policy” for booking vacation packages and for our existing Annual Passholders and ticket holders.
You can continue to book your LEGOLAND Florida vacation with the peace of mind that there is the option to change your hotel or vacation package reservation at a later date without incurring a fee. For our new Annual Passholders, we want you to join our passholder family with the opportunity to redeem and launch your year with us during an extended period of time. You can now visit our theme park up to 100 days after your purchase to activate your new annual pass. This gives you the peace of mind that you can plan for the Spring or Summer with more flexibility.
For our existing Annual Passholders, we will be extending the validity of your pass or, in the case of our Annual Passholders using monthly pay, your pass payments will be on hold as of April 1 until we are able to welcome you and your families back to experience our parks. For Guests who have a dated ticket that is valid during our closure dates, we will be extending the validity window of your ticket through the end of the year so that you have the flexibility to visit us later in the year.
We want you to have the most vacation ever—starting with your LEGOLAND Florida vacation planning experience with us. With the Peace of Mind planning, we hope to make it a little easier for your family to assemble the pieces of your next vacation so we can build those fun, exciting and special memories together.
