LEGOLAND Windsor 2026: tickets, rides and visiting

Discover our guide  London with kids

Located in Windsor, around 40 km west of London, LEGOLAND Windsor Resort is a theme park designed primarily for families with children. It features more than 55 rides, shows and experiences across different LEGO-themed worlds, from DUPLO Valley and LEGO NINJAGO World to LEGO MYTHICA.

LEGOLAND Windsor can be visited as a day trip from London or as part of an overnight stay at the Resort. For families with young children, it is one of the excursions to consider during a family trip to London, provided you allow enough time for both the journey and the park itself.

What can you do at LEGOLAND Windsor?

The park combines family roller coasters, interactive rides, attractions for younger children, water rides and LEGO creations. Around 80 million LEGO bricks are used throughout the Resort.

Must-do rides and attractions

Which rides children can go on depends partly on their height. Some of the park's best-known attractions include:

  • Minifigure Speedway: a duelling roller coaster where two trains race along parallel tracks, travelling forwards and backwards.
  • Flight of the Sky Lion: an immersive flying theatre attraction in LEGO MYTHICA, creating the sensation of flying through a world of mythical creatures.
  • The Dragon: a family roller coaster that begins inside a castle before continuing outdoors.
  • LEGO NINJAGO The Ride: an interactive attraction where visitors use hand gestures to battle NINJAGO enemies.
  • LEGO City Driving School: children drive their own small electric cars through the streets of a miniature city.
  • Pirate Falls: Treasure Quest: a water ride with a final drop that can leave passengers seriously wet.
  • LEGO Ferrari Build & Race Experience: a Ferrari-themed area where visitors can build a LEGO car and test it on different tracks.

Main areas of the park

LEGOLAND Windsor is divided into 11 themed lands. You do not need to explore them in a particular order: with children, it is usually more efficient to focus on the areas that suit their age and the rides they can go on.

DUPLO Valley is particularly suitable for younger children, with family rides and water play areas. LEGO City includes driving and rescue-themed experiences, while LEGO NINJAGO World is dedicated to the world of the ninjas.

Children looking for more dynamic rides may prefer Knight's Kingdom and LEGO MYTHICA, while Bricktopia focuses more on building and creativity.

Miniland

Miniland is one of LEGOLAND's signature areas. Millions of LEGO bricks are used to recreate monuments, cities and landscapes in miniature, complete with moving vehicles, trains and other animated features.

It is also an easy area to explore between busier rides, as you can walk around at your own pace without having to queue for an attraction.

What age is LEGOLAND Windsor best for?

LEGOLAND Windsor is particularly well suited to families with young and primary-school-age children. It is not a theme park focused primarily on thrill rides: much of the experience is built around family attractions, LEGO-themed worlds and interactive activities.

There are, however, numerous height restrictions. These vary between rides, and some attractions also require children to be accompanied by a responsible person.

For example, Minifigure Speedway has a minimum height requirement of 1.05 m. Children between 1.05 m and 1.30 m must be accompanied by someone aged at least 16. Other attractions are suitable for smaller children, sometimes when accompanied by an adult.

Measure your children before your visit and check the restrictions for the rides they are most interested in. This makes it easier to plan a realistic route and avoids discovering a height restriction after walking across the park.

How long should you spend at LEGOLAND Windsor?

Allow a full day. The park is large, and queues, breaks, meals and walking between the different areas quickly fill the day.

It is difficult to do everything in a single visit, particularly during school holidays or busy weekends. With younger children, it is usually better to choose a few priority attractions rather than trying to cover all 11 themed lands.

A two-day stay can be worthwhile for families who want to take their time or also enjoy the Resort hotels and activities.

LEGOLAND Windsor tickets in 2026

LEGOLAND Windsor ticket prices depend in particular on the date of your visit and when you book. Buying tickets online in advance is generally cheaper than purchasing them on the day.

Standard tickets include access to the park and its attractions on the selected day. Annual passes and various accommodation packages are also available.

LEGOLAND Windsor

From 34 € (or £29)

From £29 (or 34 €)

If your dates are flexible, compare several days before booking: prices and visitor numbers can vary significantly depending on weekends, school holidays and events taking place in the park.

LEGOLAND Windsor opening times

Opening days and times vary throughout the year. The park generally opens in the morning, but closing times depend on the date and season.

Do not assume that LEGOLAND Windsor is open every day of the year. Check the calendar for your chosen date before arranging transport from London or planning another activity in Windsor on the same day.

During some winter events, the attractions available may also differ from those offered on a standard park opening day.

Events at LEGOLAND Windsor in 2026

LEGOLAND Windsor hosts several seasonal events. In 2026, the park is also celebrating its 30th anniversary, having opened in 1996.

The calendar also includes LEGO Festival, running from 20 July to 31 August 2026, as well as seasonal events including Brick or Treat around Halloween and LEGOLAND at Christmas during the Christmas period.

Dates, activities and available rides can change from one edition to another. If your visit coincides with one of these events, check the programme for your chosen date before travelling.

Staying at LEGOLAND Windsor

Three themed accommodation options allow families to stay directly at the Resort. This can be convenient if you want to spend two days at the park without travelling from London twice.

LEGOLAND Resort Hotel

The LEGOLAND Resort Hotel is located immediately next to the park and offers rooms themed around different LEGO worlds. It also includes play areas and family entertainment.

LEGOLAND Castle Hotel

The LEGOLAND Castle Hotel is themed around knights, dragons and mythical creatures. Like the Resort Hotel, it is designed as an extension of the theme park experience rather than simply somewhere to sleep.

LEGOLAND Woodland Village

Opened in 2024, LEGOLAND Woodland Village consists of lodges set in a more natural environment. It provides a third option for families who want to stay at the Resort.

The benefits included with a stay, park admission and any perks available to hotel guests depend on the package selected. Check exactly what is included when booking rather than comparing room prices alone.

Practical information

LEGOLAND map and app

The park is large enough for a little advance planning to save considerable time. The official LEGOLAND Windsor Resort app allows you to check the park map, ride information and waiting times.

The map above gives an overview of the park's general layout, but rides and areas can change. Use the official map or app on the day of your visit to plan your route.

Restaurants and picnics

LEGOLAND Windsor has several restaurants, cafés, kiosks and food outlets throughout the park. The options vary between areas, and some outlets may operate only at certain times of year.

You can also bring your own picnic. For families, this can help keep costs down and reduce the amount of time spent on lunch during particularly busy days.

What should you bring for the water rides?

Several rides and play areas can leave visitors wet. A waterproof jacket and a change of clothes for children can therefore be useful, even when the British weather appears temporarily cooperative.

Rain does not automatically mean that the park will close. Some attractions may, however, temporarily stop operating when weather conditions require it.

How to get to LEGOLAND Windsor from London

LEGOLAND Windsor Resort is located at Winkfield Road, Windsor, Berkshire SL4 4AY.

By train

Two routes are particularly convenient from London. From London Paddington, Great Western Railway trains run to Windsor & Eton Central with a change at Slough, taking around 30 minutes depending on the service.

From London Waterloo, direct trains run to Windsor & Eton Riverside in under an hour depending on the service.

Both stations are in central Windsor rather than at the entrance to LEGOLAND. From there, you need to continue to the park by bus, shuttle or taxi. An independent paid shuttle service operates between Windsor and the Resort.

By bus or coach

Green Line 702 and 703 buses serve LEGOLAND Windsor. Route 702 connects Windsor with London Victoria, while route 703 serves destinations including Heathrow Terminal 5.

A LEGOLAND Windsor Resort Express coach service, operated by Evan Evans, also runs between Victoria Coach Station in London and the park on selected dates.

By car and parking

LEGOLAND Windsor can be reached by car from London via the main roads around Windsor. Follow the brown tourist signs as you approach the park rather than relying solely on the postcode in your sat-nav.

Parking is charged separately. In 2026, standard parking starts from £13 when booked online, while Priority Parking, located closer to the entrance, costs £18 per car. As prices may change, check the current rate when booking.

What to do near LEGOLAND Windsor

If you are staying locally or spending several days in Windsor, the main attraction to combine with the park is Windsor Castle, a royal residence and one of the town's major historic landmarks.

Windsor Castle

From 28 € (or £23.89)

The castle is located in central Windsor, close to both railway stations. It is therefore relatively easy to combine a stay at LEGOLAND with time in Windsor, although trying to visit both the entire theme park and the castle on the same day is likely to be too ambitious, particularly with young children.
