American Dream in East Rutherford definitely had a long road to getting up and running – and a bumpy first few years – but the massive shopping, dining, and entertainment mall is finding its footing as an all-in-one attraction for New Jersey residents and tourists. The last few years have seen several major attractions open, including the biggest Lego playground in NJ! The Legoland Discovery Center is a smaller, indoor LEGO theme park featuring stunning displays of brick-building and interactive activities that the whole family will love. You can even watch a 4-D LEGO adventure in a theater, or board a train ride for an enchanting and interactive LEGO mission. You’ll be sure to come home with an amazing collection of memories – and maybe some new LEGO sets!

Located in the back of the American Dream mega-mall, the Legoland Discovery Center beckons you into a world of brick-based fun.
