LEGOLAND California Resort soared into summer with the opening of extreme sports show GO Xtreme! on June 17th. All summer long, visitors can enjoy a series of spectacular new entertainment and shows as part of the Resort’s Summer Block Party.
What’s Happening:
- To celebrate the opening of this one-of-a-kind entertainment show, professional athletes and X Games medalists including Andy Macdonald and Bryce Wettstein visited the Park and enjoyed some awesome stunts.
- Families can catch GO Xtreme! all summer long at Fun Town Stage. Watch professional, extreme athletes, including Nate Pena (one of North America’s top-ranked pro scooter riders), Allison Ottjepka (a pro Cyr wheel athlete), Jack Fahey (a BMX rider who is an International Bronze Medalist in the Australian BMX Games Contest), and Eli Reams (a local SoCal rider who was a silver medalist in the Amateur World Skateboarding ranks) flip, dip, and soar in the air. You won’t want to miss characters like the Wheelie Bad Bandits and Speed Demons, either. Get in on the action and have a say in the nail-biting competition as you join the fun-loving judges and GO Xtreme! producer to face the challenging task of selecting the best performances.
- To keep the extreme sports celebration going, LEGOLAND California has joined forces with X Games for an epic giveaway during the GO Xtreme! shows. From now until July 21st (when the X Games kick off in Ventura, CA), park guests can participate in an interactive GO Xtreme! contest once daily for a chance to win four coveted X Games tickets.
- The GO Xtreme! show also recently premiered at LEGOLAND Florida. Check out our video of the show below:
