Current Tickets And Annual Pass Deals 

Now, we will take a look at limited discounts, the current ticket promotions and the prices of the annual pass to buy LEGOLAND California discount tickets. 

To help you imagine easily, LEGOLAND California is divided into 3 parts to sell tickets: the first part is the regular LEGOLAND part, the second is SEA LIFE Aquarium, and the last one is the Water Park.

Current LEGOLAND California Discounts

Firstly, LEGOLAND California offer a free child LEGOLAND + SEA LIFE Hopper Ticket when purchasing an adult LEGOLAND + SEA LIFE Hopper Ticket. However, this discount does not last forever, it only lasts until December 19, 2024. Therefore, if your family has small children and intends to go to LEGOLAND California this year, you should book tickets early before December to receive this discount.

About Day Tickets, there are 3 different types: 1-Day Tickets (One or Multi-Park), 2-Day Tickets (One or Multi-Park) and Family Vacation Packages. Now, will indicate the strengths and benefits of each type of ticket.

Basically, the 1-Day Pass (One or Multiple Parks) and 2-Day Pass (One or Multiple Parks) are not too different in terms of benefits. However, the 1-Day Pass does not include parking fees in the ticket price like the 2-Day Pass. And the 1-Day and 2-Day Tickets are currently priced at $79 and $99 per person respectively. Therefore, if you come to LEGOLAND California alone, these types of tickets are totally suitable for you.

The next package is Family Vacation Packages. “Family Vacation Packages” includes more benefits than 2 packages above such as overnight hotel stay and exclusive early theme park access. In overnight hotel stay term, you can step away from the LEGOLAND California Park entrance; have free hot breakfast daily; separate sleeping area for kids in every room; daily in-room treasure hunt with complimentary LEGO souvenir; heated, resort-style pool at the hotel; a chance to keep the fun going after dark; with play areas; nightly shows; dance parties; and more.

The Best Annual Deals

Different Annual Passes
Different Annual Passes

All annual passholders are able to receive 15% exclusive onsite hotel discounts and Brick-Or-Treat admission discount. Now, we turn to each annual pass. 

First of all, Elite Annual Pass is the highest package ($349). Price always goes hand in hand with quality, so when you buy Elite Annual Pass, you will enjoy all the offers and benefits from LEGOLAND California, even you go to LEGOLAND California on Saturday and Sunday. Moreover, Elite Annual Passholder can attend Brick-Or-Treat without buying any administration tickets and save 25% discount when Elite Passholders buy food and beverage. However, Elite Annual Pass is quite expensive and unnecessary unless you go with your grandparents. 

Secondly, Platinum Annual Pass ($279) is the next highest package. This package gives you almost all the same benefits as the Elite except you get limited administration to LEGOLAND Theme Park, LEGOLAND Water Park, and SEA LIFE Aquarium and Merlin Attractions. It also has blackout dates (usually Saturdays and Sundays) and does not apply to Brick-Or-Treat, so if you want to get into Brick or Treat, you can still get a discount for $10. Platinum card is capable of 20% discount while buying food and beverage.

Thirdly, Gold Annual Pass ($229) has the same benefits as the Gold card except no free parking and 15% off food and beverage purchases.

The last but not least, Silver Annual Pass is quite a bit more limited than the other 3 passes. The Silver Pass has more blockout dates to LEGOLAND Water Park and SEA LIFE Aquarium. In addition, Silver pass is not possible for the buy 3 get 1 free pass. Therefore, the Silver Annual Pass is appropriate for someone with young children who want to visit on free weekdays only and is not interested in the water park. 

I have already introduced the benefits of the four different annual passes. And in my opinion, Gold and Platinum are the best annual passes. The Platinum is the one to get if you plan to go on summer weekends and during spring break. If you don’t like crowds, get the Gold for kids and the Platinum for one person to get free parking.

The San Diego GO Pass is a great choice if you want to go out and do a lot in a short time. However, if your child has poor stamina or health, you will have a hard time because this pass must be used continuously.

October is free admission because it is Kids Go Free Month at LEGOLAND California. So, visitors just buy an adult ticket and your children can visit a variety of LEGOLAND San Diego attractions.

Kids tickets are free with paying adults and can be purchased at McDonald’s or LEGO stores (you can see on the back of LEGO). This type of ticket is also very popular and is given out like candy.

A Word From Babies Parent

LEGOLAND California is best suited for ages 3-12 and is open to all genders. However, those beyond that age range will probably enjoy it too. LEGOLAND California gets pretty crowded even on weekdays, so you should time your visit to buy LEGOLAND California discount tickets with the best price and need.
