With four water slides, a giant 318-gallon water bucket, and the opportunity to build and race your own Lego boat, the new Lego City Water Playground is sure to be a hot spot this summer.

“We’re as eager as our guests to kick off summer with the debut of our long-awaited Lego City Water Playground,” said Legoland New York Resort Divisional Director Stephanie Johnson. “We’ve developed this exciting new attraction in response to direct feedback from our guests asking for a place to cool off, but our Water Playground is so much more. Like all of our attractions, our Water Playground aims to give families interactive, creative opportunities to build, play, splash, and learn together.” 

Hosts Slidin’ Ryan and Matty Splash hosted the grand opening of Legoland New York’s newest attraction over the Memorial Day weekend and introduced a brand-new character, Shark Suit Guy, who opened the splashy playground with a shower of water and bubbles.

Like its sister resorts in Florida and California, Legoland New York opened for the 2023 season as a Certified Autism Center, credited by the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES). Every ride has a posted sensory guide indicating whether there are bright lights, loud sounds, or any feature that guests might need to plan around. A Sensory Guide is also posted at the entrance to the Water Playground, and a nearby, quiet room offers weighted blankets, dim lighting, and tactile toys.
