The twin build is billed as Merlin’s largest Legoland investment.

Overview

  • Both Legoland Florida and Legoland California revealed the shared Galacticoaster name with openings set for early 2026.
  • Parks released images showing crews installing nearly 1,500 feet of track inside 30,000-square-foot show buildings, with 48 track sections supported by 120 columns.
  • Construction has run for more than a year with a global team of 500-plus builders and major concrete pours completed.
  • Galacticoaster will be Legoland Florida’s first indoor coaster inside the main park since 2011 and Legoland California’s first new coaster in over two decades.
  • Themed elements include Spaceport 885 in Florida and Spaceport 886 in California, plus features such as Orbital Outpost retail, Duplo Tot Spot or junior astronaut training areas, and new dining; most outlets cite a $90 million budget, while one report lists £70 million.
