GOSHEN, N.Y., June 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- LEGOLAND^® New York Resort's newest attraction, Minifigure Skyflyer, will make its highly-anticipated opening to the public with sky-soaring, disco-dancing fun on June 24. Minifigure Skyflyer is a first-of-its-kind ride at LEGOLAND^® Resorts, offering a "party in the sky" experience for guests as they travel across the Park via gondola-style Party Pods. The party starts on the ground with an immersive queuing experience filled with disco tune music and inviting guests to get in the groove with the signature Minifigure Skyflyer Dance.

To celebrate the opening of its newest attraction, LEGOLAND New York Resort is hosting a Disco Dance Party on June 24, aiming to break the World Record for the Largest Disco Dance party with thousands of disco-clad fans in attendance. Guests are encouraged to dress in their disco best – glitter/sequin apparel, sparkly tutus, disco ball themed accessories, and other disco-themed duds. The first 2,500 guests to register through an online submission form and arrive at the Park on opening day dressed in theme will gain free same-day entry tickets!

"There's so much fun to be had at LEGOLAND New York Resort, but it's a sprawling Park, so guests have been asking for easier ways to navigate between the Park's seven themed lands and we listened," said Divisional Director of LEGOLAND New York Stephanie Johnson. "Minifigure Skyflyer provides an exciting solution that ignites creativity, sparks imagination and gives the best views of all the excitement happening at the Park and the surrounding, picturesque Hudson Valley, all from the air."

The seven Party Pod themes invite guests to get to know some of LEGOLAND New York's most beloved minifigures – more than 100 are depicted across the attraction – and take part in fun activities with their minifigure hosts as they soar through the sky:

• Pirate Shindig: Sing a pirate sea shanty and learn the pirate lingo with Calico Jade and Scallywag.
• Dinner Party: Join Hot Dog Man at the dinner party to find the best places to eat in LEGOLAND New York!
• Party Animals: Crack jokes with Chicken Suit Guy and Racoon Costume Fan.
• City: Wave your hands in the air like you just don't care with the No Limits crew.
• Disco Pod: Can you groove your way across LEGOLAND New York with Hip Hop Girl?
• Brick Party: Celebrate all things LEGO with super fans Mike and Amy!
• LEGO Galaxy – Out of This World Party: Meet Alien Dancer and learn how aliens party.

Minifigure Skyflyer is free to ride with Park admission, and each Party Pod is ADA accessible, stroller-friendly and can seat up to ten people.
