Brick Events to be a Block Buster

21 March 2022

KEEPING the love of LEGO alive, a spectacular LEGO brick exhibition is coming to the Inverell Town Hall on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 April 2022.

Inverell Shire Council mayor, Paul Harmon said the event is set to be a ‘block’ buster, showcasing the LEGO creations of many talented brick builders who will be exhibiting creations built entirely from LEGO.

“From standalone builds up to dioramas covering 5 to 6 tables, the event will feature over 25 different exhibits made from LEGO bricks. Themes on display will include space, Star Wars, cityscapes with operating trains, ships, planes, trucks, friends, Ninjago, Harry Potter, operating Technic vehicles and much, much more.”

“Visitors will also be able to get in on the fun, as the exhibition will feature LEGO tables for people to build their own creations.”

Hosts of the event, Brick Events Pty Ltd have been organising large LEGO events for the past 10 years and have hosted over 30 LEGO events, stretching from Coffs Harbour in NSW to Cairns in QLD and many places in between.

“More detailed works will feature in excess of 30,000 pieces each, and no, it is not glued- that would be sacrilege,” said Adrian Murphy from Brick Events Pty Ltd.

“The total brick count would be in excess of 1 million pieces! All this from the private collections and imaginations of individuals, or in LEGO speak- real master builders,” he continued.

“Displays are constantly evolving and expanding. The time spent on creating these works is incalculable and setting up the display at the Town Hall will be a meticulous process. Creators will spend many hours delicately unpacking already assembled sectioned pieces before industriously joining them to create the final masterpieces.”

Cr Harmon said the free exhibition will help the community and economy recover from the pandemic.

“Set to be a drawcard for visitors and tourism spending, the exhibition is building more blocks for economic recovery as it will attract people to Inverell.”

“We encourage all attendees to maintain physical distancing from people you don’t live with and to practice good hand hygiene.”

“If you are unwell, please do not attend this event.”

Bookings will not be required for the event. For further details, please contact Council on 6728 8288.
