Legoland Florida's Build to Give Workshop Returns November 20 and Runs a Week Longer Than Last Year

Legoland Florida's Build to Give Workshop Returns November 20 and Runs a Week Longer Than Last Year

Published

Kids can build LEGO hearts for a good cause again this season. Legoland Florida's Build to Give Workshop is back on the resort's holiday page, running November 20 to January 3 at The Dream Creation Station in the theme park.

The listing describes it this way: "Build a heart and share the joy in our Build to Give Workshop! Join our mission to gift the superpower of play in the biggest ever donation of LEGO® sets to children in need of it most from November 20 to January 3 at The Dream Creation Station."

How it worked last year

The workshop's own detail page, which the holiday listing links to, still shows last year's run as of October 31, November 24 to December 31, 2025, "Included with Tickets & Annual Passes." Under last year's rules, kids built a heart from LEGO bricks, posed for a photo, and shared it with #BuildToGive. In the page's words: "For each heart you build and share, a LEGO® set will be donated through our network of charities." Builders also got a Build to Give Pop Badge while supplies lasted.

The 2026 listing gives the dates, the location and the donation mission, but it does not repeat last year's per-heart donation promise or mention the badge. Treat those as last year's rules until the detail page is updated, and check it closer to your visit.

Longer, and a little earlier

  • 2025: November 24 to December 31, 38 calendar days
  • 2026: November 20 to January 3, 45 calendar days

This year's start, Friday, November 20, is four days earlier than last year's and one day before the first listed Christmas Bricktacular date, Saturday, November 21. The listing does not say whether November 20 is a regular operating day, so check Legoland's hours calendar before planning around it.

The listing is not in the October 13 Wayback Machine capture of the holiday page, and it was not part of our October 22 Christmas Bricktacular rundown of that page. Legoland's sitemap shows the page was last updated on October 27.

One more date change on the same page

The North Pole Postal Service, where guests write a letter to LEGO Santa with help from his elves, is now listed for November 20 to December 24, on Christmas Bricktacular event days only. November 20 is not one of the event's dates, so in practice that means event days from November 21 through December 24. When we covered it on October 22, the end date was December 25.
