Legoland California To Launch Space-Themed Land In 2026

CARLSBAD, CA — Lego fans, get ready for lift off! Legoland California Resort will launch a new space-themed land early next year that will include the Carlsbad-based theme park's first new roller coaster in two decades.

The "groundbreaking" indoor roller coaster "promises to be the most technologically advanced attraction the resort has ever created," park officials announced Tuesday. The coaster is being created by Merlin Magic Making's global team of designers and engineers, in collaboration with the Lego Group.

"This isn't just about a new innovative coaster; it's about creating an entire universe for our guests to explore, where the boundless creativity of Lego meets the wonders of space," said Flora Liu, senior project manager of Merlin Magic Making. "We've designed it so that families can explore space together in a way that only Lego can make happen."

The indoor roller coaster is also being added to Legoland Florida Resort, marking what officials call the biggest single in-park investment in the resorts' histories at more than $90 million.

The new land will also feature two additional space-themed rides, a junior astronaut training zone for toddlers, and a galactic grub and gear hub, with space-themed food, beverages and souvenirs.

Entry to the new land will be included with general park admission and all annual passes, officials said.

The land is currently under construction across from the newly opened Driving Schools attractions in Fun Town. More details about the expansion, including specific ride names and grand opening date, will be released as the 2026 launch approaches.
