We spent two full days in Legoland Denmark with three kids and five adults, and honestly, it felt like stepping into a world built not just from LEGO bricks, but from pure joy, care and smart design.
Right away, it was clear how much thought goes into the guest experience. The park is spotless—almost eerily so for its size. Waste? Hardly seen. And if anything did hit the ground, staff would spot it and clean it up before you even noticed. Even the toilets, which are generously scattered across the park, were clean and fresh throughout the day. That level of maintenance in a family theme park? Rare. Impressive.
What makes Legoland truly magical is how naturally it keeps children engaged, even while waiting. In many queue lines, kids can build with LEGO bricks as they wait for rides, and somehow that transforms what would normally be a test of patience into part of the fun. It’s such a small thing, but it makes a world of difference — especially for parents trying to manage excited little ones.
And the LEGO magic doesn’t stop there. There’s something deeply satisfying about holding your LEGO passport and collecting stamps throughout the park. Sure, the main store near the entrance gives you four stamps in one go when you make a purchase — but the real fun is in the hunt. Smaller shops across the park each hold their own exclusive stamps you won’t find anywhere else. Grab a poncho, a fridge magnet, a keychain — something small — and let the kids go full treasure hunter. Just don’t forget to bring the passport everywhere you go, or you’ll miss your chance.
One of the most unexpected surprises? The food. Theme park dining usually sets the bar low, but Legoland pulls off “affordable and tasty” surprisingly well. Day one was burgers — good ones, too — though they could ease up a bit on the salt when it comes to the fries. Day two we hit the Grillhouse, and it was genuinely delicious. Portions were generous, prices fair, and service smooth. Can’t ask for more.
The attractions themselves are a blast — and yes, there’s plenty for all ages, even the smallest ones, though most of the main rides are tailored for children who are at least a meter tall. Everything is clearly signposted, and there’s never confusion about whether a ride is suitable. One thing we loved doing as a family was the Fire Brigade challenge — a proper team effort with laughter guaranteed. And the haunted house? Filled with clever surprises and hidden interactions — keep your eyes open for glowing objects.
But there are two spots you really don’t want to miss. The LEGO Movie World is an immersive feast, visually and emotionally, and the Driving School is just pure childhood gold. But take note — you’ll need to reserve your spot in advance, and places are limited, so don’t leave it to chance. Our kids talked about it for weeks afterwards, and frankly, we totally got why.
Queues can be long, sure, but the park handles them transparently. Every major ride shows an estimated wait time, which takes the guesswork out of your day. One tip for families with strollers: many indoor areas don’t allow them, so bring a rain cover — or get one of the Legoland ponchos and toss it over the stroller when parking it.
Was it a long drive? Yes — 12 hours each way, to be exact. But was it worth it? Absolutely. Legoland Billund doesn’t just live up to the LEGO brand — it brings it to life, in full color and with heart. It’s a place where kids build memories and adults remember what play...
Read moreWe went to legoland in May 2025, so it was not peek season, weather was similar to Ireland. Legoland was great fun, it was not overly crowded and no queues that time of year. The lego mini town is lovely, with towns and famous buildings to marvel at all made with of course lego. There is something for all age groups. The toddlers and small kids there is duplo land, a duplo and peppa pig play grounds as well as suitable rides dotted throughout the park so your not stuck in one area, all these playgrouds have lego in buckets for the kids to play with. There is a baby care centre near the lego driving school, it has a table with highchairs and microwave and a soft bench in the corner for feeding along with a toddler toilet, changing tables and supplies nappies and wipes free of charge. All the rides have queue times displayed and lego troughs dotted along to keep the kids occupied while the grown ups que 😆. The rides are great fun as expected the wild west area, and adventure land have some good rollercosters no loops or swinging upside down which was fine by me. Pirate land had a great Pirate ship play ground and fun boat rides. Lego movie land was small but I'm betting the will add to it over time. And the lego castle coster was fun too. The park has got lego structures of animals and famous landmarks through out the park and lots of restaurants cafes and shops. The food and merchandise are expensive and comparing the price of lego sets to home your better off buying them at home or in dutyfree at the airport which is much cheaper. You can get exclusive sets in legoland and customise your own lego figure which is fun. You can download the app which is great at giving wait times and directions around the park to the various rides and attractions. Everywhere has lego tables for you just to build which is good fun my husband left little houses all over the park. Legoland is also very accessible, people with disabilities will be given a fast track ticket if you go to the information desk. Also if you have a hidden disability you or your child will be given a sunflower lanyard to so staff will know to be aware. Be aware strollers are not allowed in most of the buildings, you will see lots of strollers just left outside , they are perfectly safe and have returned to the stroller with the goodies we bought untouched, this seems to be the norm in Denmark. So would recommend to bring a sling to but your little one in to save your arms or shoulders. The staff are lovely, polite, chatty and seem genuinely eager to help and you have staff of all ages there which is great to see. Your best buying your tickets on line as they are cheaper then buying them at the park, the tickets can also be downloaded to the app, also for extra you can purchase the fast track option to skip queues. Tickets are around €40 a head for a day and for a brand name theam park is not bad but to do everything I think 2 days is needed. Would definitely go again with the kids or just myself who is just a big...
Read moreWe stayed at the Legoland Hotel for 3 days. Be aware: park tickets are valid for a maximum of 2 days, even if your hotel stay is longer.
Hotel room essentials In the room, you’ll find towels, a combined hair/body wash, an electric kettle (with cups for 2 people), a small fridge, a hair dryer, an iron, and a small fan. We learned that in Denmark, most hotels do not have air conditioning.
Birthday package We also booked the birthday package for my son. It included one Lego cake (Lego set), a bottle of bubble drink, a pillowcase and blanket cover, festive flags, 4 balloons, and a birthday sticker on the door. It was a bit pricey, but my son enjoyed it a lot.
The park The park itself is quite small (I’m from the Netherlands and compared it to the Efteling). It’s also very commercial—you can pay extra to skip the lines, and there are some activities that aren’t included in the ticket price. Most rides are very short. However, a great feature is that every queue has a sheltered play area for children. So even if it’s raining, your child can play in a dry space while you wait. Legoland wasn’t very busy this year. We hardly had to wait more than 5 minutes for most attractions, and the most popular rides were a maximum of 20 minutes.
Safety & shopping Compared to the Netherlands, it’s not very safe to leave your belongings unattended; unfortunately, we lost some items. Also, Lego products are more expensive here than in the Netherlands. A tip: buy Lego sets in advance and give them to your child at the park—it’s just as magical without the extra cost.
Food We had lunch in the park twice. The food was salty, and there were no vegetables or fruit. For my child, who doesn’t like anything sweet, there was nothing suitable to eat. Themed snacks like chocolate Lego bricks and Lego-shaped fries were a fun idea. I’d recommend trying the chocolate, but maybe skip...
