LEGO Santa's New Christmas Drone Show at Legoland Florida Will Fly on 14 Nights, and None of Them Are in November

If you are planning a November trip to see LEGO Santa take to the skies at Legoland Florida, you will want to move it to December.

The resort's Christmas Bricktacular page now lists the dates for its all-new Christmas drone show featuring LEGO Santa, and there are 14 of them, all in December. Christmas Bricktacular itself runs on 26 dates from November 21 to January 3, so the headline new show skips 12 event days, including every November date.

The drone show dates

Under the "New for 2026" drone show bullet, the page now reads: "December 5, 12, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30."

• Saturday, December 5
• Saturday, December 12
• Saturday, December 19 through Wednesday, December 30, every night, including Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

When we checked an archived copy of the page from September 15, the drone show bullet had no dates under it at all. The page was last updated on the morning of October 15, according to Legoland's sitemap.

The Christmas Bricktacular dates with no drone show

Here are the Christmas Bricktacular dates on the same page that are not on the drone list:

• November: 21, 22, 27, 28 and 29 (all five November dates)
• December: Sunday the 6th, Sunday the 13th, Friday the 18th and Thursday the 31st
• January: 1, 2 and 3

Legoland does not explain the gaps, and it has not posted a showtime. December 31 does have its own sky show: the park's separate Kids' New Year's Eve page promises "brick-bursting fireworks" that day.

A limited run, like Halloween

This is the second drone show of the year with a limited schedule. For Halloween, the Monster Skytacular drone show is scheduled for just five Brick or Treat nights, all of them October Saturdays (October 3, 10, 17, 24 and 31), and three of those are still to come. The Christmas show is more generous, especially over the holiday week, but anyone visiting in November, on Sunday, December 6 or 13, on Friday, December 18, or from New Year's Eve onward still misses it.

What is on every Christmas Bricktacular date

The drone show is one of three additions marked "New for 2026." The other two, "The Resort's first ever Rap Battle Show!" and "An interactive festive light trail, featuring LEGO brick-building," have no separate dates listed. The page also lists a "30-foot-tall LEGO Christmas tree," festive character meet-and-greets and "Exclusive minifigure-inspired food and drink." We covered the event's new name and lineup when it was announced in September.

Christmas Bricktacular is included with theme park tickets and annual passes, according to the page. Legoland's own Christmas blog advises: "Check the official schedule for the date of your visit, since entertainment times and availability may vary." That is good advice: the drone dates are on the event page, not in any of Legoland's Christmas blog posts.

So which would you rather book: a November visit without the drones, or Christmas week with LEGO Santa in the sky?
