LEGOLAND® Florida revealed its official opening date of Saturday, October 15, 2011. The all-new 150-acre theme park is designed especially for kids ages 2 through 12.

The opening date has been a guarded secret since the park broke ground last year, but officials finally released the date to help families already planning vacations in the fall.

"I'd estimate 80 percent of the inquiries we've received have been about our opening date," said LEGOLAND Florida sales manager Todd Andrus. "Guests are all but begging to know the date, so they can book their flights and accommodations, and purchase admission tickets."
