Legoland Florida's Monster Skytacular Drone Show Will Fly on 5 of Brick or Treat's 18 Nights, and All 5 Are October Saturdays

Brick or Treat runs six nights longer at Legoland Florida this year, 18 dates against 12 in 2025. The Monster Skytacular drone show went the other way. Its 2026 schedule is now posted, and it is five nights.

The park's Brick or Treat page now carries the schedule for the Monster Skytacular drone show. "Select weekends only at 8pm: October 3, 10, 17, 24, & 31," the page reads, in both the show listing and the VIP seating block. Those five dates are all Saturdays, and they are all in October.

18 event nights, 5 with drones

Brick or Treat 2026 runs on 18 dates: September 5, 6, 12, 19 and 26, then October 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, 25, 30 and 31. Match that against the drone schedule and 13 of those nights have no Monster Skytacular, including every September date.

That is worth knowing before you pick a date, because Brick or Treat is included with general park admission rather than sold as a separate ticket. The park's FAQ puts it plainly: "A separate ticket is not needed. Admission to Brick or Treat is included with your general admission to the Park!" The drone show is also the only Brick or Treat listing on the page that carries its own dates. Nothing else in the lineup, from Brick or Treat Street to the candy stations to the four other shows, is pinned to a named date.

Last year the page said every night

In 2025, Brick-or-Treat ran on 12 dates, from September 20 through November 2, and Legoland's page for it made a broader promise. The show, it said then, "is back and ready to light up every night of Brick-or-Treat with dazzling drones, flashes of fireworks, and bumpin' beats for a sky full of spellbinding sights and unforgettable family memories!"

That wording carried into 2026 for a while. An Internet Archive capture of the same page from August 3 of this year still ran the sentence almost intact, changed to promise "select nights" rather than every night. That section is gone from the live page, and so are the other two fireworks references the August 3 version carried. The show listing that read "dazzling drones, flashes of fireworks, and bumpin' beats" now reads "dazzling drones and bumpin' beats," and a paragraph billing an "award-winning drone and firework display" has been dropped. The word fireworks does not appear anywhere on the page today, though the page still calls the show "award-winning" in the VIP seating block. Legoland has not announced any change to the show itself, and the page does not say whether the new wording reflects one.

Hours for those nights are already posted. Legoland Florida's opening hours calendar lists all 18 Brick or Treat dates at 10am to 8pm and labels each one "Brick or Treat," against a 10am to 5pm day on every other date the park is open in September and October. The hours page still cautions that "event hours will be revealed closer to event dates," so times can move, but as published the 8pm drone show starts right at park close.

What else is new on the page

The rest of the page has filled out too. It was much thinner on August 3. Three listings now carry a "NEW!" label. There is a "NEW! Halloween Galacticoaster," a Halloween overlay on the park's newest ride. There is a "NEW! Department of Monster Vehicles," where, as the park puts it, "The monster world has a few hazards they might not have covered on your human driving test." And there is a "NEW! LEGO Wacky Witch" meet and greet, described as a monster who is "New to the neighborhood."

The page still leads with Brick or Treat Street, a walkthrough trail where guests "knock on the doors of playful LEGO Halloween monsters and explore the Wacky Witch's Cottage, Spider Lady's Castle, Plant Monster's Greenhouse and more." Candy stations, meanwhile, run from 2pm to 7pm on every event day, drone night or not.

Four more closures carry dates, three of them starting Monday, including The Great LEGO Race and the full closure of Imagination Zone. One of those four, Deli Takeover, is still listed as a lunch option on the park's new prepaid Dining Packages.

A separate Discovery Cove offer page for the same visit date is still carrying leftover copy from two years ago, and a separate $50 gift card offer closes on Sunday.
