A LEGOLAND Florida spokesperson said it is making “operational changes” at its theme park that resulted in mass layoffs reported to the state of Florida last week, including more than 100 performers.

Legoland Florida plans to lay off 234 workers, primarily performers, in an effort to be more competitive in central Florida’s thriving theme park market.

The mass layoffs are permanent and scheduled to begin March 25 through April 7 at the Winter Haven theme park.
