Before Your Legoland Columbus Visit

It’s best to purchase your tickets in advance, especially during peak periods (spring break, winter break, and holidays), though I recommend it for anytime. If you are coming from outside of Columbus, this is the best way to ensure you will be able to visit at your chosen time or won’t be forced into a time slot that doesn’t align with your plans. Additionally, you get the best deals with advance purchase.

If you’re living on the edge, walk up tickets are available. You may have to wait until the next available time slot. If you are choosing this option, the slower times will be weekdays, during the day.

Please note: During the times of covid-19, entry is extremely limited. I strongly recommend making online reservations. Masks are currently required for entry for both adults and children. Child sized masks are for sale.

Arriving at Legoland Discovery Center

When you arrive to Easton Town Center, look to park in the West garage (closest) or East garage. These are great parking locations, though you will have to walk a bit farther if you choose the latter. Legoland is inside the mall.

Once you arrive, you will go to the front desk and present your reservation. There may be a line. Since tickets are by time slot, you will want to arrive a few minutes before you scheduled time.

Once you are allowed in, you can proceed at your own pace.

During Your Visit

The journey starts in the Lego Factory Tour. This room is fun, but it’s also something you can go through pretty quickly. Then, you’ll head to Kingdom Quest, the first ride of two rides at the Legoland Discovery Center. This ride is a lot of fun, even for adults. Next, you’ll head into the large play area which is divided into a few sections. There is Lego Friends, Lego Racers: Build and Test, Earthquake Tables, and Duplo Farm and Duplo Village for toddlers and younger kids. There is also a large play area to just build legos to your heart’s content.

In this area, you’ll also find Merlin’s Apprentice ride. Kids love this one, too!

If your kids aren’t feeling into playing with legos or building and testing out their race cars, they can climb in the Lego City Play Area.

Before you leave, be sure to check out Miniland. Minland is a small model of Ohio’s big three cities: Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati. Over 1.5 million bricks make up this interactive treasure. The cities are filled with lights and moving parts. One can spend an hour just noticing all of the small details included.

Food and Drinks

There is a cafe inside of Legoland. There are beverages, sandwiches, and snacks available for sale inside the cafe.

Outside food and beverages are not permitted, except for babies and allergies.

Adults Only Nights

Adults are not permitted entry into Legoland without children. There are adults only nights, typically on the first Thursday of each month, starting at 7 pm.

Can Children Visit without an Adult

No, all children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

After Your Visit

Once you’ve ridden the rides as many times as you could, built your Lego mansion, and tired out your kids on the climbing gym, it’s time to check out the gift shop. It has a lot of cool things for sale. Easton has surprise: there’s another lego store around the corner and just outside of the main building. Lego lovers are going to love Columbus!
