Miniland USA 

This grand tour for the whole family is an ideal vantage point to enjoy the sights and adventures along the lakeshore and in Miniland.

Don't miss our largest Miniland expansion ever - the fabulous Las Vegas Strip made entirely out of LEGO^® brick, including ten different hotel properties chosen for their unique architectural style.

On March 29, 2012 we're expanding our popular LEGO Star Wars™ Miniland to include new LEGO models in each scene as well as a never-before-seen LEGO Star Wars Gallery!

Guests can already enjoy seven of the most famous scenes from the six live-action Star Wars movies, as well as a scene from the animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars™ all made out of 1.5 million LEGO bricks and built in 1:20 scale. But on March 29, Star Wars and LEGO fans alike will be delighted to find even more detail in each episode. For example, in the Naboo area, guests will discover an “underwater” scene featuring an opee sea killer as it pursues Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn and Jar Jar Binks as they try to reach the city of Theed. Other new LEGO models include a Jawa sandcrawler in the Tatooine scene; Rebels caught in a net trap set by Ewoks on Endor; and a new crystal tower standing more than 6-feet-tall on Christophsis.
 
For the first time, guests will be further immersed into the Star Wars experience as they walk through the LEGO Star Wars Gallery encountering LEGO “friends”, similar to giant mini-figures, from each episode. Each LEGO model will be 3-feet-tall and displayed on a podium for guests to get an up-close look. The 12 characters feature: Wicket, Princess Leia, R2D2, Clone Captain Rex, Darth Vader, Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Anakin, Boba Fett, Chewbacca, Yoda and Darth Maul. In fact, two new Darth Maul LEGO models will be introduced honoring the release of Star Wars: Episode 1 The Phantom Menace in 3-D on February 10, 2012. One of the Darth Maul models will stand in the LEGO Star Wars Gallery while the other LEGO model will be life-sized, posed in a combat position grasping his double-bladed light-saber in one hand and reaching forward with the other.
 
The new models for Star Wars Miniland are being developed and built by LEGOLAND Model Builders all over the world but it will be up to the Master Model Builders at LEGOLAND California to bring the scenes to life with the help of animation, electricians, technicians and landscapers.

Currently, guests can enjoy seven of the most famous scenes from the six live-action Star Wars movies, as well as a scene from the animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars™ all made out of 1.5 million LEGO^® bricks built in 1:20 scale. Guests will be further immersed into the Star Wars experience as they pose with life-size LEGO models of Chewbacca, R2-D2 and Darth Vader.

Following a chronological path through the Star Wars timeline, LEGOLAND guests retrace the major events of the beloved Saga. Some of the 2,000 LEGO models will be more than 6-feet-tall. Interactive buttons will allow children to activate animations throughout the scenes.

In Miniland's New England Harbor, Park guests can interact with animated mini farm animals choreographed to festive music. Admire the intricate detail of the farm equipment, including a combine harvester, in this quaint New England town.

Our Miniland version of New Orleans was built in Billund, Denmark. During Halloween, the famous New Orleans cemetery "comes alive" with dozens of zombies and skeletons crawling out of the graves!

More than two million LEGO^® bricks are used in the reconstruction of the city that never sleeps.  Our Central Park is filled with as much diverse activity as the real park! You can find people ice skating, roller skating, practicing Tai-Chi, going for carriage rides, listening to concerts, sunbathing, sailing model boats, or just out for a stroll.

What visit to Southern California would be complete without visiting our Miniland version? Come see the Griffith Park Observatory perched on the hill above the Hollywood Bowl and Greumann's Chinese Theater. Also, don't miss our version of San Diego's historic Mission San Luis Rey, complete with the signature red tile roof. Surfers and sunbathers alike line our miniature beaches.

Come take a peek at our LEGO^® Master Builders at work as they create models for the Park.

Every 4 years, the 2 LEGO mini-figures appearing in the presidential motorcade are changed depending on the outcome of the election. So far Bill and Hillary Clinton, George and Laura Bush, and Barack and Michelle Obama have been built and displayed.

For a nominal fee, you can even navigate your own mini boat in the LEGOLAND Marina.

Geared toward the health conscious diner, The Garden Restaurant features gourmet sandwiches, and home made soups and salads. Don't miss our Signature Caprese Panini made with whole mozzarella, pesto, fresh basil and tomatoes served on whole grain wheat berry bread.
