Halloween in Southern California truly marks the end of summer and the countdown to Thanksgiving and Christmas. As a child, I remember going to our local mall to trick-or-treat because it was safe. Theme parks, recognizing parent’s desire for a fun, safe, memorable way to spend the holiday with their kids, have introduced not-so-spooky Halloween-themed celebrations during the month of October. LEGOLAND has followed suit with their Brick-or-Treat Party Nights.

Brick-or-Treat at LEGOLAND California Resort

Last week, we headed over to the theme park inspired by the infamous Danish-made toys. On select Saturdays throughout October, LEGOLAND hosts their Brick-or-Treat Party Nights from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm. When the park “closes” for the day, Castle Hill, Land of Adventure and Imagination Zone transform into a “not-too-spooky Halloween haven” for the party. Highlights include costume contests, trick-or-treating at one of 16 treat stations, festive music, crafts, and live entertainment. In true LEGOLAND style, the park is decked out with Halloween-themed LEGO models. But my kids’ favorite part of the night was trick-or-treating! The treat stations offer everything from candy and GoGo squeeZ YogurtZ to LEGO® commemorative bricks, a LEGO® Life Magazine, and LEGO® Pop Badges. Tip: Don’t forget the bonus trail at Sea Life Aquarium.
