Get ready as Brick Shows Ireland is set to come to Donegal

The show will take place at Jackson’s Hotel and Conference Centre on Sunday, September 28

A brick show is coming to Ballybofey next month.

The show will take place at Jackson’s Hotel and Conference Centre on Sunday, September 28.

At the brick show, there are Lego displays, areas for kids and adults to play with Lego, speed build competitions, a guess who competition and a treasure hunt.

Brick Shows Ireland brings to life the world of Lego with huge custom-made models, dioramas and MOCs made by Lego enthusiasts. These cover a range of the favourite Lego themes, including Lego City, Star Wars, Ninjago, Technic and Castle.

The shows are targeted at children aged 4-12 who already like Lego, but all are welcome.

“Why is it called a brick show if it’s all Lego? Because Lego don’t allow us to call it a Lego show even though everything is made from Lego,” Brick Shows Ireland said.

“If you like Lego, you will like our shows. As well as a variety of custom-made models, you will see some older and harder-to-find Lego sets on display. As the show is aimed at children, we have a Lego 'free play' area for children to sit /stand and play. Seats are first-come first first-served.

“Depending on the venue size, we may also have a large brick pit. Free speed build competitions with a small prize given for each winner, and the fastest overall in each age category at the end of the day wins a set.”

There will be a colouring table and a duplo play area for younger kids. Treasure hunt for everyone - A selection of questions based on the models on display, prizes given for the winner drawn at each time slot. Additionally, there will be vendors selling Lego minifigures and merchandise.
