For the serious LEGO® builder we again will offer a LEGO fan convention! The event will be held Friday-Sunday, March 16-18. Benefits of attending the convention include:
The event theme this year is "Green." It is inspired by the fact that St. Patrick's Day takes place that weekend, but we're not limiting it to that: any creative use of the color green, subjects relating to the environment, and of course Ireland or St. Patrick's Day themed models are suitable. In 2010 our theme was "The Brick Artistic" and in 2011 it was "Creative Combinations."
If you're interested in attending the whole convention, read all about the Convention, Hotel, Registration, and Schedule, along with more information about the weekend's events.
Not sure if you want to come to the convention or just the public day? Read our FAQ to find out more.
