    Sounds awesome even though for me to get there I would have needed to start driving yesterday to get there before 12:00 🙁

    Admin do know if this will be brought to any other cities

      This even was organized by the local LUG, so it is doubtful they would go beyond what is close enough for them. If there is a LEGO club near you, you can check with them and see what events they have. To be a recognized LUG, user groups must hold public events each year.

    That looks and sounds awesome! I guess all LUG conventions and events are cool… 🙁

      Oh, yeah, me too! It is a good idea to check out what LEGO events are in your area (or areas that you plan to visit), and mark it in your calendar ahead of time. Many of the largest LEGO conventions are yearly events.

        I went by earlier tonight. A modest amount of displays. They’re just getting things started for that area and hoping to get bigger in upcoming years. There displays were a small selection of what is typically found at BrickFiesta.
