When Legoland New York rides break down
Closures by the hour they start
614 breakdowns · late starts excluded
Breakdowns cluster at 4pm, with 101 of the 611 recorded closures starting in that hour - so the ride you most want is safest earlier in the day, not saved for last. A further 1523 rides simply were not running at opening, which is a late start rather than a fault and is counted separately. A further 3 closures start in the 6pm hour, when the park is shutting - those are rides finishing their day, not failing, so they are left out here.
Legoland New York downtime day by day
Share of ride hours lost
22 Jun to 20 Aug
The worst day in this window was 6 Jul, when 94.8% of the park's ride hours were lost and 44 of 44 rides went down at some point.
Uptime is the share of the park's own operating minutes a ride was running, recorded every few minutes and averaged over 60 days. A closure counts as one breakdown when it lasts ten minutes or more; shorter stops still count towards time lost, because a two-minute reset is not a fault. Touching closure windows are merged into one closure - a ride shut all day arrives from the feed as that day sliced into the sampling interval, and counting each slice would report one bad day as a hundred breakdowns.
