Adults must be accompanied by children to enter LEGOLAND Discovery Center. We will host exclusive adult nights for our Adult Fans of LEGO without children!

All children must be accompanied by an adult and supervised at all times.

To ensure our guests have the best experience possible, we limit the number of visitors that can be in the Center at one time. The best way to ensure your family's entry is by reserving your tickets online (while receiving special online discounts)! We do not allow re-entry once you have left the attraction.

LEGOLAND® Discovery Center New Jersey is located inside American Dream, just steps away from MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ. You’ll find it on Level 1 near Parking Lot A of the American Dream complex. Whether you're visiting for a day of family fun or heading to a football game or concert at MetLife Stadium, LEGOLAND® Discovery Center is the perfect nearby destination to kick off your adventure.

American Dream offers convenient parking to all guests. The first 15 minutes of parking is free, and after that, it costs $5.00 per vehicle throughout the day (except when event rates are in effect). On stadium event days, we highly recommend parking in Decks B / C Level 1 and take the walk bridge to Deck A, then enter American Dream through the entrance doors on Level 1/ Deck A. Visit American Dream’s website for information on current events. You can also visit the MetLife Stadium event calendar for a list of upcoming events.

We encourage families to interact together and explore their imagination and creativity through a world of open play, and therefore, visits are not guided. The typical visit takes 2-3 hours, but you are welcome to stay for as long as you wish.

We do not allow outside food or beverage, unless caring for babies or food allergies in children.

LEGOLAND Discovery Center New Jersey encourages guests to enjoy deliciously fresh foods and snacks, as well as coffee beverages and ice cold sodas in our Cafe.

Yes, we are fully accessible for visitors with disabilities and wheelchair users. We do not provide wheelchairs or stroller rentals at our attraction.

Yes. We ensure that there are always staff members at the LEGOLAND Discovery Center New Jersey who are trained in first aid.

We are stroller friendly, with family bathrooms with diaper changing facilities.

LEGOLAND Discovery Center New Jersey is taking all possible steps to ensure the safety and well-being of our guests, staff and creatures as needed, and are following the local safety regulations in place. This includes limiting capacity and ensuring social distancing through various signage and monitoring staff.

Face coverings are highly recommended for all guests (3+). 

Enhanced cleaning measures will also be implemented throughout the day to clean and sanitize the aquarium including high-frequency touch points and play areas.

The majority of attractions ask guests to use a contactless bank card instead of cash. This initial operational change was trialed as a result of the pandemic due to ongoing health and safety concerns over the handling of cash. Most of our guests have embraced this, and they are made aware in advance of visiting our attractions. Other options are available for guests to make payments, such as using our NO FEE cash to card machines. 

We will always try and work with our guests to ensure we can find a solution for those unable to use card payments, and ask that those guests who have those requirements contact guest services to discuss options before they visit.

To ensure our guests have the best experience possible, we have limited the number of visitors that can be in the Center at one time. All guests buying tickets online OR at the door will be required to make a reservation for an entry time.
