As you can plainly see, Legoland makes BIG use of their famous Lego bricks during the holidays, turning them into Santa Claus, a GIANT Lego Christmas tree, reindeer, elves, and other fun Lego creations. On the rest of this page, you'll read about Legoland's Christmas activities for families, which you'll enjoy if you visit the park this coming December. What dates can you enjoy Legoland's Christmas fun?Legoland's main holiday events begin on Saturday, December 5th. Other dates are December 6, 12 and 13th. Then, from December 19th to the 24th, Christmas events will be held daily.Other Legoland Christmas event dates: "Let It Snow, the Musical"--- Beginning November 27th (the day after Thanksgiving), this 25 minute long seasonal stage play will then run weekends-only through Sunday, December 13th...and then daily from December 19th through January 1st, including Christmas Day. Showtimes will run throughout the day, so be sure to check the schedule when you enter the park. Nightly tree lighting: Beginning on Monday, November 30, 2009, there will be a nightly lighting ceremony of the Legoland Christmas tree every evening that the park is open. The last date for the tree lighting is December 24th. Legoland is open on Christmas Day, but there will be no tree-lighting event. Fireworks displays: Every night between December 26th and 31st, you'll be able to enjoy a fireworks show in celebration of the holiday season. Kid's New Year's Eve Party: 6 pm is the time...and Legoland's Miniland themed area is the place! Gather to hear live music and watch a giant Lego brick drop! Your children will never know it's not actually 2010 yet...unless you tell them! Legoland's Christmas Activities and AttractionsWhat special events are held at Legoland in celebration of the Christmas holidays?Legoland Park in Carlsbad, California celebrates the holidays---and you can join in the fun! Not every activity is offered every day of the week, however. But, no matter when you attend the park in December, you WILL find special Christmas attractions to enjoy! (Note: In December, 2009, Legoland will be open ALMOST every day of the month...but not all. The park will be closed on the first 3 Tuesdays & Wednesdays of December.)You can meet Santa, and he'll never get tired of hearing your Christmas wish list, even if it's a mile long. Why not? Because, Santa's made of Legos, too! You can sit beside him in his sleigh (pulled by Lego reindeer, of course!) What a fun and fanciful photo op! 2.) Tree-lighting ceremony: Every night from November 30th until through December 24th (Christmas Eve), you can get in on a tree-lighting ceremony held just before Legoland's closing time. Head to the entrance area of the park...near the giant Lego Christmas tree, of course, if you'd like to get in on the fun. 3.) Fireworks, selected dates: Every evening between December 26, 2009 and New Year's Eve, you'll be able to enjoy fireworks at Legoland Park. This activity will take place just before the theme park's closing time on these nights. 4.) Play "Where's Santa" in the Miniland section of the park: Unfortunately, the entire park is NOT decorated. If you're not expecting that fact, the Christmas experience at Legoland can seem a little UNDERwhelming. Once you leave the park's entrance area, you leave behind the park's holiday decorations, as well. However, there's one more Christmas-themed activity of which you should be aware. In the Miniland section of the park, tiny miniature Lego Santas, Lego choirs, Lego snowmen and other holiday figures are secretly planted amongst the scenes of Lego California, Lego New York, Lego New Orleans and other city scenes. One of the most whimsical last year was Lego Santa and his reindeer atop the White House in Lego Washington DC. Poor Santa Claus! He was only trying to deliver Christmas presents to the First Family...and was apprehended by the Men In Black in the process. Both he and his reindeer had to stand at attention with their hands held high in the air. Will they make it 'round the world to finish delivering presents to all good little boys and girls? You'll have to ask the Lego builders---only THEY know whether or not Santa actually escapes! Legoland's New Year's Eve party......an exciting holiday bash for families!You'll like it, as well---because you don't have to wake up bleary-eyed on New Year's morning because you stayed out too late the night before! You can ring in the New Year at 6 pm, a perfect time for families with young children. Normal park activities run as usual most of the day on December 31st. But, by 3 pm, you'll want to head to the park's outdoor stage (near the Washington DC exhibit in the Miniland section of the theme park.) There will be live music and entertainment for several hours. Then, comes the moment the crowd is anticipating most---the New Year is official announced by the official 2010 giant Lego Brick! Fireworks blast off, and noisemakers sound. What a fun way for kids and their parents to greet the New Year together!
