Legoland Florida has revealed the name of its new space-themed roller coaster.
Galacticoaster will open in early 2026 at the Winter Haven theme park. Legoland has updated its website to reveal the new name.
"Families will board their own Lego spacecraft and launch into an interstellar mission packed with thrills, immersive storytelling, and cosmic Lego fun," the website said.
The same coaster is coming to Legoland California next year, but that park has not yet updated its website with the Galacticoaster name. [Update: Legoland California confirmed it Monday morning.] In California, the coaster will anchor a new space-themed land. Both coasters will be indoors and built by ART Engineering.
In Florida, the new Galacticoaster is going in on the site of the old Flight School roller coaster. In California, the new space-themed land is taking over the former site of Driving School, which has relocated to replace Fun Town Police and Fire Academy.
Owner Merlin Entertainments is spending $90 million to build the new space-themed attractions in Florida and California. The tracks on each coaster will measure nearly 1,500 feet, with a height of over 30 feet. Each coasters will occupy a 30,000-square-foot building.
"We've pulled inspiration from Lego sets families have loved for decades, while layering in modern technology to create the most immersive and personalized coaster experience yet," Merlin Magic Making Senior Project Manager Flora Liu said.

It does look like a launch coaster by ART engineering, like we suspected, but it's a weird seating arrangement. Only one car per train, with four-across seating? Or are there more cars that we can't see in the concept art? Legoland has famously bad operations, I hope it's a capacity machine.
